About this study

Official title: A Comparison of the Glidescope® Video Laryngoscope and the Storz DCI® Video Laryngoscope for Endotracheal Intubation in Children Younger Than Two Years of Age

This is a prospective randomized clinical study to be performed in pediatric patients under the age of 2 years who are undergoing surgical procedures requiring endotracheal intubation. Time to endotracheal intubation will be compared between patients intubated using a GlideScope® video laryngoscope, those intubated with a Storz DCI® video laryngoscope, and those intubated by standard direct laryngoscopy. The study hypothesis is that the time to endotracheal intubation will be decreased in the Storz DCI® video laryngoscope group when compared to the GlideScope® video laryngoscope group and standard laryngoscopy.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Measurement of Time to Intubation Will Begin at the Time of Mouth Opening and End With the Removal of the Tip of the Laryngoscope Blade From the Patient's Mouth After Successful Endotracheal Intubation.

    Measured: Less than one day, representing the day of surgery and period of endotracheal intubation during induction of general anesthesia

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Successful Intubation After One Laryngoscopy Attempt

    Other secondary outcome measures will be the use of external laryngeal manipulation to improve glottic view, tissue trauma and type,and method of rescue if initial intubation attempt proves unsuccessful.

    Measured: Less than one day, representing the day of surgery and period of endotracheal intubation during induction of general anesthesia.

  2. Successful Intubation After Two Laryngoscopy Attempts

    Measured: Less than one day, representing the day of surgery and period of endotracheal intubation during induction of general anesthesia.

  3. Successful Intubation After Three Laryngoscopy Attempts

    Measured: Less than one day, representing the day of surgery and period of endotracheal intubation during induction of general anesthesia.

  4. Successful Intubation After Four Laryngoscopy Attempts

    Measured: Through endotracheal intubation during induction of general anesthesia, an average of 10 minutes

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Endotracheal intubation in people with Endotracheal Intubation, run by Loma Linda University at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measurement of Time to Intubation Will Begin at the Time of Mouth Opening and End With the Removal of the Tip of the Laryngoscope Blade From the Patient's Mouth After Successful Endotracheal Intubation. (time frame: Less than one day, representing the day of surgery and period of endotracheal intubation during induction of general anesthesia). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
