Abstract
The modified stylet (Rüschelit plastic) is longer than the common one. By pushing forward as far as necessary the stylet alone can be used to enter the larynx in cases of difficult intubation. The stylet is long enough to allow a loop to be formed at its proximal end to ensure stability between the tube and the stylet.
