Official Title: Hypnosis as a Sole Agent to Perform Awake Intubation
Brief Summary:
Awake intubation is a recommended safety procedure in specific cases where the intubation or ventilation before general anesthesia is at risk.
Numerous techniques to allow awake intubation have been described, such as pure awake technique, local anesthetics or intravenous sedation for example.
Hypnosis is used for various operating room techniques and surgeries. The investigators aim to analyze the feasibility of awake laryngoscopy and intubations on patients placed under hypnosis alone.
