We thank  Li et al for their comments on our article. We used the GlideScope (Verathon, Bothell, WA) in our research.1 It uses a camera to provide the operator with an enhanced view of the airway during intubation and has been recommended for use when preoperative evaluation predicts difficulty or as a re scue device after failed direct laryngoscopy with a Macintosh laryngoscope.2 We mentioned that 2 anesthesiologists (the second and third authors) intubated all patients. Both anesthesiologists have more than 10 years' experience in a university hospital and have applied the GlideScope in the oral a nd maxillofacial field.
