Sponsor's own description

In patients with suspected cervical spine injury, cervical immobilization, such as manual in-line stabilization or cervical collar has been adopted to prevent further neurologic injury due to cervical motion. In these patients, tracheal intubation with direct laryngoscopy is often challenging due to limited mouth opening, neck flexion, and head extension. In this situation, videolaryngoscope and fiberoptic bronchoscope have been used for tracheal intubation in such patients. In this study, the initial success rate of tracheal intubation and intubation time between the videolaryngoscope and fiberoptic bronchoscope will be compared.
