Tópica de la vía aérea La anestesia para la intubación despierto-endoscópica de usar el spray-as-you-go Técnica con alto caudal de oxígeno

The topical anesthetic lidocaine was atomized using a high oxygen flow through the working channel of a flexible intubating endoscope to achieve topical airway anesthesia for awake endotracheal intubation. We prefer this modified spray-as-you-go technique for endoscopic intubation to classical bolus application because of higher patient satisfaction and better compliance.
