However, our study found that the sniffing position was more effective. In this study, we aimed to compare the two positions of light-wand-guided endotracheal intubation.Method: Sixty adult patients were included in the study, after obtaining informed consent, and were randomly assigned to one of two groups: a control group in a neutral position with a chin-lift (group C, n = 30) and a sniffing position group (group S, n = 30). In group C, the anesthesiologist inserted a light-wand after lifting the patient's mandible using the thumb of their non-dominant hand inside the patient's mouth. In group S, a light-wand was inserted after the patient's head was flexed with the neck extended. We assessed variables such as light-search time, number of intubation attempts, time to achieve intubation, and side effects including blood tinge on the endotracheal tube, hoarseness, sore throat, and anesthesiologist satisfaction.Results: The light-search and intubation times were shorter in group S than in group C. The incidence of blood tinge on the endotracheal tube was higher in group C than in group S. Anesthesiologist satisfaction was higher in group S than in group C.Conclusions: The sniffing position was more effective in facilitating light-wand-guided endotracheal intubation than the neutral position with a chin-lift.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.17085\/apm.23079","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,31]],"date-time":"2023-10-31T05:52:02Z","timestamp":1698731522000},"page":"431-438","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.17085\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["The sniffing position facilitated easier light wand guided endotracheal intubation compared with the neutral position with chin-lift"],"prefix":"10.17085","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0014-8297","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Gunn Hee","family":"Kim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-9859-9678","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Eun Jae","family":"Jung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4027-786X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Yun Jae","family":"Han","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5838-4893","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Mi Jung","family":"Yun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2573","reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.aat.2011.05.003"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2044.2007.05433.x"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000539-200003000-00044"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4097\/kjae.2011.60.6.398"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0300060515594193"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jclinane.2010.12.012"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/bf03020389"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4097\/kjae.2006.51.3.308"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4097\/kjae.2008.54.1.25"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/bf03016838"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.17245\/jdapm.2015.15.3.167"},{"key":"ref12","first-page":"651","volume-title":"A double bending lightwand can provide more successful endotracheal intubation in patients with a short thyromental distance: a prospective randomised study","author":"Jeon","year":"2011"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/bf03018987"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/bja\/aet428"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajem.2015.06.049"}],"container-title":["Anesthesia and Pain Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/anesth-pain-med.org\/upload\/pdf\/apm-23079.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/anesth-pain-med.org\/journal\/view.php?doi=10.17085\/apm.23079","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/anesth-pain-med.org\/upload\/pdf\/apm-23079.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,31]],"date-time":"2023-10-31T06:03:13Z","timestamp":1698732193000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/anesth-pain-med.org\/journal\/view.php?doi=10.17085\/apm.23079"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,31]]},"references-count":15,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2023,10]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.17085\/apm.23079","relation":{},"ISSN":["1975-5171","2383-7977"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"1975-5171"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2383-7977"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,31]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2023-06-29","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2023-09-18","order":1,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2023-10-30","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published online","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2023-10-31","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Print publication","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
