Trial summary

Rhinoscope is useful to exam intranasal structure. This information could be utilized to select more suitable nose for nasotracheal intubation. Nastoracheal intubation using more patent nose could be associated with decrease of the development of epistaxis which is most common complication in nasotracheal intubation.

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Suitable Nose Selection Using Rhinoscope on the Incidence and Severity of Epistaxis After Nasotracheal Intubation.

Rhinoscope is useful to exam intranasal structure. This information could be utilized to select more suitable nose for nasotracheal intubation. Nastoracheal intubation using more patent nose could be associated with decrease of the development of epistaxis which is most common complication in nasotracheal intubation.

Read the detailed description

Anterior rhinoscopy using rhinoscope is a simple way to view the intranasal structure, which allows you to observe the nasal mucosa, the inferior nasal concha, and in some cases, the nasal concha. You can see the nasal septum, polyps, and intranasal malformations. In addition, even when there are no structural abnormalities in the nasal cavity, the wider nasal cavity can be intuitively identified. This information is expected to assist in the selection of nostrils. It has not yet been studied whether anesthesiologists select nasal cavity for nasotracheal intubation using prosthesis can affect the occurrence of epistaxis.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the selection of a nostril for nasotracheal intubation by rhinoscope affects the incidence and severity of epistaxis.

What is being measured

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

  1. incidence of epistaxis

    percentage of the development of epistaxis after nasotracheal intubation

    Measured: immediate after intubation

  2. incidence of epistaxis

    percentage of the development of epistaxis after nasotracheal intubation

    Measured: 5 min after intubation

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. severity of epistaxis4. severe: interfere intubation by blood

    score based on severity of epistaxis will be recorded.

    1: no epistaxis, 2: mild; blood on tube 3. moderate: blood pooling on pharynx

    Measured: immediate after intubation

  2. severity of epistaxis

    score based on severity of epistaxis will be recorded.

    1: no epistaxis, 2: mild; blood on tube 3. moderate: blood pooling on pharynx

    Measured: 5 min after intubation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing rhinoscope in people with Nasotracheal Intubation, run by Ajou University School of Medicine 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 1 inclusion and 4 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 26 Jul 2022. 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?

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?

incidence of epistaxis (time frame: immediate after intubation). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 26 Jul 2022.
