Actual (reported)Early after the videolaryngoscope'(VDL) introduction in clinical practice, the awake videolaryngoscopic (A-VDL) intubation took place with and instead of the awake video-bronchoscopic (A- VBS) intubation. The awake intubation is a safe profile technique that was underused since the only instrumentation available was the fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB) or more recently the video-bronchoscope (VBS). With the VDL diffusion, the awake intubation option has eventually turned into a more utilized procedure, with the potential to become a daily procedure. This was also due to dexmedetomidine (DEX) introduction in The Operating Room pharmacopeia. Several steps must be standardized in order to homogeneously apply an awake intubation protocol. A department protocol is recommended (awake intubation guidelines) but a low threshold for enrollment can be used to shorten and standardize the execution times. This study aims to create a protocol and measure the outcomes.
