Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Commonly, the management of the tracheal intubation is performed by a fiberoptic technique.
However, changes in equipment availability and quality may challenge the fiberoptic intubation technique.
The investigators wish to compare the tracheal intubations performed with the Airtraq in comparison with the fiberscopic technique.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Commonly, the management of the tracheal intubation is performed by a fiberoptic technique (historic gold standard technique).
However, changes in equipment availability and quality may challenge the fiberoptic intubation technique.
We wish to compare the tracheal intubations performed with the Airtraq in comparison with the fiberscopic technique.
Primary outcomes will be the changes in neurophysiologic responses monitored by a neurophysiologist in 5 specific phases:
1. Basal potential (BM): neuromonitoring while the patient is anesthetized, no movements
2. Ventilation potential (VM): neuromonitoring while the patient is anesthetized and a bag-mask ventilation is performed
3. Intubation potential (IP): neuromonitoring while the patient is being intubated with one of the two randomized devices
4. Post Intubation (PI): neuromonitoring after the patient has been intubated
5. Post Positioning (PP): neuromonitoring after the patient has been properly positioned on the operating table and is ready for surgery
