Results: Cough score (P= 0.458), post-intubation score (P= 1.000), and sedation score (P=
1.000) were comparable among the two groups. Hemodynamic responses and propofol and …

Background The preferred management strategy for difficult airways is awake fiberoptic
bronchoscopy-guided intubation, which requires effective airway anesthesia to ensure …

Combined use of local anesthetics and low-dose opioids enhances the effects of local
anesthetics. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of combined administration of …

Background: Various drugs have been used to facilitate awake fiberoptic intubation (AFOI).
Although fentanyl is probably used most frequently, magnesium sulfate can provide muscle …

Background and aims Flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy is used to diagnose diseases of the
tracheobronchial tree and to obtain samples. Methods used for awake flexible fiberoptic …

Aim: This randomized controlled study was performed to evaluate the effectiveness of using
lignocaine nebulization in addition to specific airway blocks for AFOI. Methodology: This was …

Aim To compare the intubating conditions using fentanyl plus propofol versus fentanyl plus
midazolam during fiberoptic laryngoscopy. Materials and Methods A prospective …

Background: Tracheal intubation which is accomplished with a fibreoptic bronchoscope is
thought to attenuate the circulatory responses to intubation as stimulation of the …

Results: Cough Score (1-4), post-intubation Score (1-3) and RSS (1-6) were significantly
favorable (P< 0.0001) along with minimum hemodynamic responses to intubation (P< 0.05) …

Background: Awake fiber-optic bronchoscopy-guided intubation is the method of choice in
