Summary

The goal of this study is to assess the ease of ETT threading over the FOB on the right or left labial commissures in patients aging between 18 and 70 years old with ASA score I-II and undergoing any type of surgery. The main question it aims to answer is whether threading the tube on the right labial commissure during FOB intubation has a better success rate than threading the tube on the left labial commissure. Participants will be randomized via a computerized system into 2 groups (Group 1: Patients intubated with FOB by threading the tube on the left labial commissure and Group 2: Patients intubated with FOB by threading the tube on the right labial commissure). Researchers will compare the success rate of threading the tube on first trial, number of ETT threading trials, time to success, and incidence of intra-procedural complication between the two groups to see if threading the tube on the right labial commissure during FOB intubation has a better success rate than threading the tube on the left labial commissure.
