Difficult airway is one of the major challenges facing anesthesiologists. This challenge is compounded when the patient is treated while awake. The additional burden is to complete this procedure comfortably thus ensuring patient cooperation which is a vital part of successful performance. Several methods have been tried in literature to facilitate awake intubation by fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB)~This randomized double-blinded study is performed to compare ketamine versus lidocaine for nebulization for awake nasal fiberoptic intubation as regard efficacy and side effects.
