Trial summary

Suction Above Cuff Endotracheal Tube (SACETT) has a dorsal port above the cuff designed to allow continuous or intermittent suctioning of secretions from the subglottic space. Thus, it facilitates suctioning of excessive secretions around the mouth and the cuff. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of the Use of Endotracheal Tube With Subglottic Suction on Laryngospasm and Postoperative Complications in Rhinoplasty Operations

Suction Above Cuff Endotracheal Tube (SACETT) has a dorsal port above the cuff designed to allow continuous or intermittent suctioning of secretions from the subglottic space. Thus, it facilitates suctioning of excessive secretions around the mouth and the cuff. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of the use of SACETT on laryngospasm and postoperative complications in rhinoplasty operations. This randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted in 132 patients undergoing rhinoplasty.

The investigators believe that the use of SACETT in rhinoplasty operations reduces the incidences of laryngospasm, emergence agitation, sore throat, swallowing difficulty, and PONV when compared with classic endotracheal tube.

Suction Above Cuff Endotracheal Tube (SACETT) has a dorsal port above the cuff designed to allow continuous or intermittent suctioning of secretions from the subglottic space. Thus, it facilitates suctioning of excessive secretions around the mouth and the cuff. In this study, the investigators aimed to investigate the effect of the use of SACETT on laryngospasm and postoperative complications in rhinoplasty operations.

This randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted in 132 patients undergoing rhinoplasty. The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: Suction Above Cuff Endotracheal Tube (n:66) (Group SA) and classic endotracheal tube (n:66) (Group C). Complications following general anesthesia were statistically analyzed among the two groups.

55 male patients and 77 female patients were included in the study. The incidences of postoperative laryngospasm and respiratory complications were found to be lower in Group SA compared to Group C. In addition, the incidences of agitation, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), swallowing difficulty, and sore throat were found to be lower in Group SA compared to Group C. However, the incidences of cough, hypotension, and tachycardia were similar in both groups. No PONV, swallowing difficulty, and hypotension were observed in Group SA. The blood volume accumulated in the suction chamber was found to be greater in Group SA compared to Group C.

The investigators believe that the use of SACETT in rhinoplasty operations reduces the incidences of laryngospasm, emergence agitation, sore throat, swallowing difficulty, and PONV when compared with classic endotracheal tube.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of laryngospasm

    While the presence of findings such as apnea (an apneic event was counted by either documentation of apnea by nursing notes through visual observation or documented pauses ≥15 s), desaturation (peripheral oxygen saturation <85%) and inspiratory stridor (Stridor is a harsh, vibratory sound of variable pitch caused by partial obstruction of the respiratory passages that results in turbulent airflow through the airway) after extubation was considered as laryngospasm.

    Measured: 1 mounth

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. emergence agitation

    Riker Sedation-Agitation Scale Score ≥5 (7-Dangerous agitation: Pulling at endotracheal tube, trying to remove catheters, climbing over bedrail, striking at staff, thrashing side-to-side 6- Very agitated: Does not calm despite frequent verbal reminding of limits, requires physical restraints, biting endotracheal tube 5- Agitated: Anxious or mildly agitated, attempting to sit up, calms down on verbal instructions 4- Calm cooperative: Calm, easily arousable, follows commands 3- Sedated: Difficult to arouse, awakens to verbal stimuli or gentle shaking but drifts off again, follows simple commands 2- Very sedated: Arouses to physical stimuli but does not communicate or follow commands, may move spontaneously

    1- Unarousable: Minimal or no response to noxious stimuli, does not communicate or follow command)

    Measured: 1 mounth

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?

Incidence of laryngospasm (time frame: 1 mounth). 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 NCT03584503, which also lists 4 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.

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 4 Dec 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
