摘要
We report successful awake intubation in a morbidly obese patient (body mass index of 61.2) using an epidural catheter inserted through the external forceps channel of the fiberscope for delivery of local anesthetic. Direct application of local anesthetic to the pharyngolaryngeal area and proximal tracheal, through the use of a relatively firm epidural catheter. We conclude that awake intubation can be achieved by this method which spares the subsequent use of any sedative drugs.
