Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Need for additional maneuvers for tracheal tube advancement
Requirement for additional maneuvers to advance the endotracheal tube into the trachea after glottic entry will be recorded. Additional maneuvers are defined as any maneuver required to facilitate tracheal tube advancement after glottic entry, including tube rotation, tube withdrawal and re-advancement, blade repositioning, or external laryngeal manipulation.
