Difficulty can be encountered during advancement of the tracheal tube (TT) over the bronchoscope after successful endotracheal bronchoscopy due to impingement on laryngeal structures. A new TT, the Parker Flex-Tip (PFT), has been shown to be superior to polyvinylchloride (PVC) TTs in anesthetized, paralyzed patients with normal airways. However, no study to date has shown the superiority of the new tapered tip design in patients with difficult airways during awake fibreoptic intubations (AFOI). The purpose of this study was to compare the PFT with PVC TTs for AFOI in patients with difficult airways or unstable c-spines.

Parker Flex-Tip™ are not superior to polyvinylchloride tracheal tubes for awake fibreoptic intubations
