Brief Summary

Videolaryngoscope is useful to improve the laryngeal view, especially during difficult intubation. There are several kinds of videolaryngoscopes and it is applicable during nasotracheal intubation. In this study, the investigators will compare the McGrath videolaryngoscope and Pentax-AWS with Macintosh laryngoscope for nasotracheal intubation in patients with manual in-line stabilization.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
POGP scorewhen laryngoscope is appropriately placed during intubation, approximately 2 seconds

Percentage of glottic opening(POGO)

time for intubationfrom holding the laryngoscope until the 1st ventilation after intubation, within 90 seconds
Cormack Lehane Laryngeal viewwhen laryngoscope is appropriately placed during intubation, approximately 2 seconds
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
magill forcepswhen laryngoscope is appropriately placed during intubation, approximately 5 seconds

when the nasotracheal tube can not introduced to vocal cord manually, magill forceps can hold the tube to advance the tube through vocal cord. The necessity of magill forceps during intubation will be recorded

numeric rating scale for intubationduring intubation, approximately 90 seconds

0-10 (0; no difficulty, 10: hardest)

grade of bleeding10 seconds after completion of intubation

After confirmation of successful intubation, Yankauer suction was introduced to access the intraoral bleeding during intubation.

Grade is 4 points scale (none/trace/moderate/severe).

external laryngeal manipulationwhen laryngoscope is appropriately placed during intubation, approximately 2 seconds

When the laryngeal view is insufficient during laryngoscope, another physician can manipulate the larynx externally to improve the laryngeal view. The necessity of external laryngeal manipulation will be recorded.

IDS (intubation difficulty scale)during intubation, approximately 90 seconds

IDS score is the sum of the following seven variables:

N1: the number of intubation attempts\>1 N2: the number of operators. 1 N3: the number of alternative intubation techniques used N4: glottic exposure (Cormack Lehane grade minus 1) N5: Lifting force required during laryngoscopy (0=normal; 1=increased) N6: necessity for external laryngeal pressure (0=not applied; 1=applied) N7: position of the vocal cords at intubation (0=abduction/ not visualized; 1=adduction)
