Tracheal intubation using the Airway Scope under specific circumstances

Abstract

Airway Scope (AWS) has been reported to be useful in cases of intubation difficulty and has come to be used widely in clinical practice. AWS is also used for awake tracheal intubation. In cases in which AWS is used for patients with large amounts of secretions, special attention is needed. AWS has been used under other specific circumstances and is considered to be an item that will further develop its applications.
