Summary

This study looked at whether using a bendable wire (stylet) inside the breathing tube helps doctors successfully insert the tube on the first attempt in critically ill patients. Over 1,000 adults in intensive care who needed a breathing tube took part. The goal was to see if the stylet reduces complications and improves success rates.
