About this study

Official title: Comparison Techniques of Magill Forceps and Cuff Inflation to Facilitate Nasotracheal Tube Placement Under Video-laryngoscope Use

to investigate the effectiveness of techniques of either using Magill forceps or cuff inflation in facilitation of nasotracheal tube advancement into trachea

Read the detailed description

Patients who undergo oxo-maxillofacial surgery need naso-tracheal intubation to present good surgical view-field. but, sometimes, the naso-tracheal tube is unable to advance from nasopharynx, oropharynx, into trachea without assistance. Using techniques of either Magill forceps or cuff inflation is advantageous is not determined.

Being tested
Magill forceps, cuff inflation
Keywords
Magill forceps, cuff inflation, Nasotracheal Intubation

What is being measured

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

  1. the technique spending time in this time interval and first attempt successful rate

    to measure the time taken of either using Magill forceps or with cuff inflation techniques in successfully intubated patients

    Measured: 10 minutes

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. total intubation time taken

    measure the whole intubation time taken from tube tip into selected nostril, to nasopharynx, to oropharynx, into trachea, till capnography showing of 3 consecutive CO2 waveforms

    Measured: half an hour

  2. glottic injury and cuff damages during tube advanced

    to assess the bleeding point of glottic area and the cuff injury of endotracheal tube

    Measured: half an hour

  3. postoperative nasal bleeding, sore throat and hoarseness

    Events of intubating related nasal bleeding were measured on selected nostril and oral cavity at 3 minutes post-intubation. Incidences of sore throat and hoarseness are evaluated before patients out of recovery room and the coming morning

    Measured: 2 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Magill forceps and cuff inflation in people with Nasotracheal Intubation, run by Kaohsiung Medical University Chung-Ho Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Nov 2023. 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 Taiwan. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

the technique spending time in this time interval and first attempt successful rate (time frame: 10 minutes). 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 7 Nov 2023.
