Abstract

Obesity is associated with difficult or failed intubation attempts, making general anesthesia challenging for anesthesiologists to perform. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the efficacy of a McCoy laryngoscope and a C-MAC D-blade video laryngoscope for intubation in obese patients with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 35 kg/m
