The study aims to compare the efficacy of the Ambu AuraGain to that of the Air Q ILA as a conduit for endotracheal intubation assisted by tube exchanger. The comparison will be in terms of total intubation time, success rate of insertion of the tube exchanger as well as endotracheal intubation and complications.
Very few studies discussed assisted endotrachealc intubation using certain tools as bougie through the Air Q ILA . the hypothesis in this study is that the use of flexible, small calibre tube exchanger introduced through both supraglottic devices into the trachea as guidance for endotracheal intubation, will have shorter intubation time with the Ambu AuraGain than the Air Q ILA and less complications in both devices.

A tube exchanger is a small calibre , flexible tube used to guide endotracheal intubation through a supraglottic device.
Kasr Alainy Hospital
Cairo, Elmanial, Egypt
Total endotracheal intubation time
tube exchanger intubation time plus endotracheal intubation time
Time frame: time of tube exchanger insertion and endotracheal tube insertion
success rate of endotracheal intubation
incidence of successful endotracheal intubation
Time frame: 1 second after insertion tube exchanger until successful endotracheal intubation
Tube exchanger insertion time
time from disconnection of the supraglottic device from ventilator to successful insertion of tube exchanger in trachea
Time frame: from disconnection of the supraglottic device from ventilator to successful insertion of tube exchanger in trachea
