Background: Endotracheal intubation (ETI) is a procedure widely performed for several clinical indications. In typical ETI, an endotracheal tube is placed into a patients trachea with the help of a malleable metal rod covered with a clear plastic sheath (called a stylet). However, another intubation aid, a bougie (also named a gum elastic bougie or endotracheal tube introducer), was also introduced in the clinical setting to improve the efficacy of conventional ETI.

PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched for studies published before November 2018. Randomized controlled trials comparing the clinical outcomes of bougie and stylet approaches in patients who underwent orotracheal intubation were included. Meta-analyses ...
