intubation

INTRODUCTION: Nasotracheal intubation is a skill greatly appreciated by anaesthesiologists and surgeons in head and neck specialities.

during fibreoptic nasotracheal intubation. The infusion was prepared by adding 2ml (200[micro]g) of dexmedetomidine to 48ml of 0.9% saline solution making overall solution of 50ml.

This technique provided a secure airway, an unobstructed intraoral surgical field and allowed maxilla-mandibular fixation while avoiding the drawbacks and complications of nasotracheal intubation and tracheostomy (8).

Most importantly, since the SNPA can be peeled off the bronchoscope, nasotracheal intubation can be facilitated.

Furthermore, nasotracheal intubation may cause serious complications includingtrauma to nasal structures and epistaxis [5].
