  • Abstract
    The device uses capnography to guide intubation for more effective airway management. The carbon dioxide concentration is conveyed to the anesthesiologist through an audible signal, which is used to direct the endotracheal tube into the trachea. The process significantly speeds up procedure time in difficult airway cases while reducing the risk of improper tracheal tube placement.
