About this study

Official title: : Rigid Video Stylet Can Provide More Successful Intubation Than Conventional Lightwand Intubation in Patients With Cervical Spine Operation : A Prospective Randomized Study

Lightwand is a useful alternative device for intubation but scooping movement can induce damage and microbleeding of oral mucosa, postoperative hoarseness,sore throat. Optiscope is rigid video stylet which has camera on distal tip of device. In many previous studies, rigid video stylet has proven advantages compared with other intubating devices.

Being tested
Conventional lightwand intubation, Rigid video stylet
Medical subject headings
Hoarseness

What participants receive

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

  • Conventional lightwand intubationDevice

    Conventional lightwand intubation technique will perform during intubation

  • Rigid video styletDevice

    Also called Optiscope® (Pacific Medical, Seoul, Republic of Korea)

    Rigid video stylet will inserted through endotracheal tube before induction. After induction with propofol and remifentanil using TIVA infusion pump, rocuronium 0.6mg/kg were used to facilitate intubation. After 2minutes, board-certificated anesthesiologist perform intubation using Optiscope.

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary success rate of intubation

    compare primary success rate of intubation using Optiscope with lightwand intubation

    Measured: within 90 sec from insertion of device

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Intubation time

    Check the intubation time (sec) Intubation time defines "from insertion of device to oral cavity of patients to confirm successful intubation"

    Measured: within 90 seconds from insertion of device

  2. postoperative complications

    check the postoperative hoarseness, sorethroat and using numeric rating scale (0-10 point) we checked sorethroat score

    Measured: During PACU stay time expected up to 1hr

  3. postoperative complications

    check the postoperative hoarseness, sorethroat and using numeric rating scale (0-10 point) we checked sorethroat score

    Measured: 24 hr after operation

  4. hemodynamic change

    check the changes of mean blood pressure, heart rate, pulse oximetry before and after intubation

    Measured: baseline and 1minute after intubation

  5. number of intubation trial and scooping movements

    Check the number of intubation tiral and scooping movements during intubation

    Measured: during intubation time, an expected average of 1minute

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Conventional lightwand intubation and Rigid video stylet in people with Hoarseness and Intubation, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Feb 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Hee Pyung Park, MD PhD (82-2-2072-2466, hppark@snu.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary success rate of intubation (time frame: within 90 sec from insertion of device). 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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Feb 2015.
