Abstract

This case report describes a patient in the ICU in need of urgent intubation, for whom video laryngoscope-guided intubation had previously failed. The Infrared Red Intubation System may enhance the chance of successful flexible bronchoscope intubation, especially when performed by non-experts in hospitals without ear, nose and throat surgical backup.
