Background and aims: Our purpose was to compare using King vision (KV) and ILMA for intubation of obese patient.
Methods: This prospective randomized research was implemented on 60 obese patients underwent electoral surgeries under general anesthesia. The study included 2 groups, Group 1: ILMA was used to intubate tracheal and Group 2: King vision was used for tracheal intubation. We noticed time to tracheal intubation, number of attempts, number of successful trial, lowest SpO2, any adverse events, bleeding, intubation difficulty score, SpO2, HR, and mean blood pressure.
Results: When compared to ILMA, King vision was associated with shorter time to tracheal intubation (17.96 ± 5.12 vs. 133.7 ± 44.12 s), less adverse events, less intubation difficulty score (1.23 &plusm.. View More»
