No results posted yet for this study

Summary

We evaluate feasibility of fiberoptic intubation through the "ILMA Fastrach" vs the "i-gel". Both are airway devices to be introduced in the mouth we the possibility to ventilate the patient and furthermore to be a guide to introduce a tracheal tube. We first insert either the ILMA or the i-gel. In a second step, we will introduce a tube through the device, all guided visually through a fiberoptic tool which works as a railroad for the tracheal tube.
