Lightwand is a useful alternative device for intubation but scooping movement can induce damage and microbleeding of oral mucosa, postoperative hoarseness,sore throat. Optiscope is rigid video stylet which has camera on distal tip of device. In many previous studies, rigid video stylet has proven advantages compared with other intubating devices.

Conventional lightwand intubation technique will perform during intubation
Rigid video stylet will inserted through endotracheal tube before induction. After induction with propofol and remifentanil using TIVA infusion pump, rocuronium 0.6mg/kg were used to facilitate intubation. After 2minutes, board-certificated anesthesiologist perform intubation using Optiscope.

RECRUITINGPrimary success rate of intubation
compare primary success rate of intubation using Optiscope with lightwand intubation
Time frame: within 90 sec from insertion of device
Intubation time
Check the intubation time (sec) Intubation time defines "from insertion of device to oral cavity of patients to confirm successful intubation"
Time frame: within 90 seconds from insertion of device
postoperative complications
check the postoperative hoarseness, sorethroat and using numeric rating scale (0-10 point) we checked sorethroat score
Time frame: During PACU stay time expected up to 1hr
postoperative complications
check the postoperative hoarseness, sorethroat and using numeric rating scale (0-10 point) we checked sorethroat score
Time frame: 24 hr after operation
hemodynamic change
check the changes of mean blood pressure, heart rate, pulse oximetry before and after intubation
Time frame: baseline and 1minute after intubation
number of intubation trial and scooping movements
Check the number of intubation tiral and scooping movements during intubation
Time frame: during intubation time, an expected average of 1minute
