About this trial

The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of tube rotation on passage of the tracheal tube through the nasopharynx into the oral cavity in nasotracheal intubation.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

adult patients requiring nasotracheal intubation for elective surgery

Disqualifiers

refuse to participate in the study

severe deformity in nose

current severe epistaxis

limitation of neck extension

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

nasotracheal intubation
Procedure/Surgery
For nasotracheal intubation, the nasal RAE tube will be inserted with it rotated by 90 degrees in counter-clockwise direction for patients in the 'Rotation' arm. For nasotracheal intubation, the nasal RAE tube will be inserted without tube rotation for patients in the 'Neutral' arm.
