About this study

Official title: Comparative Study Between SensaScope Intuboscope and McGrath Series 5 Videolaryngoscope to Tracheal Intubation: a Prospective Randomised Study

A randomized controlled prospective study of laryngoscopy and intubation time comparing SensaScope and the McGrath® Series 5 video laryngoscope.

Read the detailed description

The use of videolaryngoscopy is increasing as a technique for rescue intubation as well as for elective intubation. Current airway management guidelines recommend video-assisted laryngoscopy as a choice for basic airway management. This is a proposed comparison study of a video laryngoscope, use in the daily anesthesia practice, and its likely increased success compared to semi-rigid stylet. An national, mono center, prospective randomized comparative trial (RCT) is proposed testing the superiority of oral tracheal intubation with the McGrath® Series 5 versus SensaScope in adult patients under general anaesthesia.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Time for tracheal intubation in people with Airway Morbidity, run by Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz at 1 site in Germany.

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 4 inclusion and 9 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?

comparison of different time for tracheal intubation (time frame: <2min). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02348736, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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.
