Comparing the efficacy of oral intubating airways to facilitate successful fiberoptic intubation: A systematic review

Background & rationale In patients with difficult airways, fiberoptic bronchoscopes (FOB) are widely used to facilitate tracheal intubation. There are several oral intubating airways which can be used to orient the FOB towards the trachea during fiberoptic-guided intubation; however, it is unclear whether these are effective, and which provides the best intubation conditions. Objective To systematically review the impact of airway intubators …
