Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the level of difficulty in inserting a standard PVC endotracheal (ET) tube using the intubating laryngeal mask airway (ILMA) and compare it with the ease of inserting a silicone ET tube. The objective was to ascertain the feasibility of using the PVC endotracheal tube in conjunction with the intubating laryngeal mask airway (ILMA).
