Overview
Brief Summary
To determine which nostril is more suitable for nasotracheal intubation with video rigid stylet.
Detailed Description
Head and neck surgeries usually require nasal intubation, which allows leeway for operative maneuvering in the mouth, pharynx, larynx, and neck. Previous studies have found that the right nostril is more appropriate for nasal intubation using direct laryngoscope or videolaryngoscope. It has been shown that the optical rigid stylet was also an appropriate tool for nasal intubation. However, nasal intubation with rigid optical stylet is technically different from that with laryngoscope. It is unknown whether the choice of nostril could affect the intubation using rigid optical stylet. The main aim is to determine which nostril is more suitable for nasal intubation with video rigid stylet.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Total time for intubation
Time Frame: Procedure (From when the device tip entered the nostril to when the tube entered the trachea.)
The duration from when the device tip entered the nostril to when the tube entered the trachea, as confirmed by capnography.
Secondary Outcomes
- Total success rate(Procedure (Up to the tube entered the trachea.))
- First-attempt success(First-attempt of nasal intubation with video rigid stylet.)
- Times of intubation-attempts(Procedure (From when the device tip entered the nostril to when the tube entered the trachea.))
- The time for device insertion(Procedure (From when the device tip entered the nostril to when it passed through the vocal cord.))
- The time for tube insertion(Procedure (From when the tip of the device passed through the vocal cord to when the tube was confirmed inserted into the trachea.))
- Incidence and severity of epistaxis(Procedure (Up to completion of intubation))
