Comparison of Awake Tracheal Intubation Methods

The aim of this study was to compare three different awake tracheal intubation technique -fiberoptic bronchoscopy (ATI:FB), videolaryngoscopy (ATI:VL), and fiberoptic bronchoscopy via a supraglottic airway device (ATI:SAD)- in terms of success rates, intubation times, and complications. Additionally, the study aims to evaluate the reliability of the SAD-assisted ATI method and its potential to contribute to the literature.
