    Abstract

    Fibreoptic intubation (FOI) remains the gold standard in securing endotracheal intubation in the patient with a predicted difficult airway. Frequently in an anticipated difficult airway, a multi disciplinary approach including Otorhinolaryngology (ENT) cross specialty support is essential. ENT specialists have advanced training in both surgical airway and endoscopic techniques. However training and experience in bronchoscopy varies considerably across both specialties.
