Summary

The goal of this clinical trial to study the efficacy of suction catheter guided technique and conventional technique during nasotracheal intubation.

The main question are

* How effective of the use of a suction catheter guided ETT in reducing bleeding during nasotracheal intubation?
* Does the use of a suction catheter guided ETT can improve its navigability through the nasal passage and reduce nasal passage time?

Conditions

  • Intubation Complication

Interventions

DEVICE

suction catheter

a suction catheter will be first inserted through the ETT so that about 10 cm of the catheter was protruding from the distal end of the tube. The tip of the catheter is then inserted through the selected nostril until it passes to the pharynx. If resistance is felt to the passage of catheter, the other nostril will be tried. The nostril with less resistance to the catheter passage will be chosen for the completion of the procedure. The Endotracheal tube is then advance over the catheter through the nasal passage while holding the catheter proximal to the tube to prevent its advancement with the tube. After the tube tip reach to the pharynx, the suction catheter is withdrawn and tracheal intubation will be completed.
