Brief Summary

This randomized controlled study aims to compare nasotracheal intubation (NTI) using a video laryngoscope (VL) with a bougie versus without a bougie. Patients will be randomly assigned to either group, and key outcomes such as first-attempt success rate, intubation time, number of attempts, and complications (e.g., epistaxis, mucosal trauma) will be evaluated. The study will help determine whether using a bougie improves the success and safety of NTI with Video laryngoscope.
