Summary
This study looked at over 3,000 adults having surgery to find out which size of Macintosh blade (a tool used to guide a breathing tube into the windpipe) works best on the first try. The goal was to see which size leads to successful tube placement without complications like low oxygen or low blood pressure. The results help doctors choose the right tool for safer intubation.
