Summary

The goal of this prospective randomized controlled study is to investigate the effect of head tilting on tracheal tube passing during nasotracheal intubation.

The question which the investigators are trying to answer is: If patient's neck is extented on inserting tracheal tube via nostril, will the E-tube be more easily to pass through nasopharynx to oropharynx without trapping?

Conditions
