Summary

Nasotracheal intubation is indicated in patients undergoing oral, maxillofacial, or dental procedures. During nasal intubation with the traditional Macintosh laryngoscope, use of Magill's forceps or external laryngeal manipulation is usually required to facilitate intubation. The prolonged or multiple intubation attempts and, subsequently, may be associated with complications such as oxygen desaturation or airway and dental injuries.

The C-MAC videolaryngoscope (Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, Germany) is a videolaryngoscope using a modified Macintosh blade, which may be a useful alternative both for routine and difficult airway management and for educational purposes.

In this prospective, randomized, controlled trial, the purpose is to compare C-MAC and DL in terms of intubation times, hemodynamic response and adverse events associated with nasotracheal intubation in children undergoing dental procedures.
