Abstract
Between 1978 and 1983, the tracheas of eight patients could not be intubated in the maternity unit of St James' University Hospital, Leeds. The incidence of failed intubation on our labour ward is approximately one for every 300 general anaesthetics given. The results of postoperative investigation in the patients are reported.Keywords
