What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • intubation using optiscopeDevice

    Optiscope (Clarus Medical, Minneapolis, MN, USA) is a semi-rigid fiberscope designed for endotracheal intubation. Anesthetic providers who are novice on optiscope will perform intubation using optiscope.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
intubation using optiscopeExperimentalThe investigators are novice on optiscope. They will perform intubation using optiscope to patients scheduled elective surgery.
Receives: Device: intubation using optiscope

What is being measured

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

  1. time to intubation

    Time to intubation (from optiscope insertion to the detection of end tidal CO2) will be recorded. If time to inubation is longer than 180 s or pulse oxymetry is lower than 94%, mask ventilation will be performed. If intubation is not successful within 3 trials, it will be performed using direct laryngoscope.

    Measured: intubation period
