Summary

Infrared light is applied to the front of the neck of patients for awake flexible optical intubation. The infrared light can be detected by the camera at the tip of the flexible video-bronchoscope. The flexible scope is introduced into the trachea with or without the aid of the blinking infra red light and the ease of placement of the flexible scope is studied.
