We have read with great interest the study by Jaber et al.[1] recently published in Intensive Care Medicine, where the authors studied the effect of the routine use of a stylet during tracheal intubation on first-attempt intubation success. In their multi-center randomized controlled trial, the use of a stylet for tracheal intubation resulted in significantly higher first-attempt intubation success than the use of tracheal tube alone (78.2% vs. 71.5%, relative risk 1.10). The number needed to treat with a stylet to prevent on intubation failure was 14.8. Notably, this is the first study to evaluate quantitatively the effect of using a stylet in intubation, and the result is very informative and educational, and we agree that a stylet should be recommended for all clinicians in tracheal intubation. Data comparison with a recent international prospective observational study for intubation practices (INTUBE study)[2] may add an informative discussion. Of note in the STYLETO study is the fact that, regardless of the use of a stylet, there are less (almost a half!) severe complications observed (25.6%) when compared to those reported in the INTUBE study (45.2%). Standardization of the intubation procedure used in the STYLETO study (Montpellier intubation protocol) might strongly prevent the incidence of complications during intubation [3]. It is also interesting to note that the choice of induction agent differs entirely between the STYLETO study and the INTUBE study: ketamine, 68.9% vs 14.2%; propofol, 13.2% vs 41.5%, respectively. Although there are pros and cons over the use of ketamine for intubation of critically ill patients [4], ketamine has been advocated as the induction agent of choice, given its more beneficial hemodynamic effect [5]. These factors taken together might result in the lower incidence of complications during intubation in the STYLETO trial. Elucidation of the best choice of induction agent is still warranted to achieve safer tracheal intubation for the critically ill patients.Again, we would applaud the authors for performing such an important study, which reported the effect of a stylet for intubation quantitatively for the first time. Further clinical studies, auguring the relationship between the intubation and the complications, may complement the great data by Jaber et al.
