Summary

The investigators aim to compare two different types of supraglottic devices for tracheal intubation in patients undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia.

The investigators hypothesis is that the use of the I-gel® supraglottic airway device associated with a GlideRite® endotracheal tube will result in an equal success rate of fiberoptic tracheal intubation when compared to the LMA-Fastrach® associated with a GlideRite® endotracheal tube. Time to intubate with the I-gel® device should also be shorter.
