About this study

Official title: Learning Curve of Fiberoptic-guided Tracheal Intubation Through Supraglottic Airway Device for Pediatric Difficult Airway Manikin

This study aims to obtain learning curve data of residents for fiberoptic-guided tracheal intubation through supraglottic airway device for pediatric difficult airway manikin.

Read the detailed description

Residents under anesthesiology training will undergo a simulation practice to a pediatric airway manikin, after a single demonstration by an expert for fiberoptic-guided tracheal intubation through supraglottic airway device. The participants will do the same practice 20 times to the same manikin.

Being tested
Training, supraglottic airway device
Keywords

  2. Elapsed time to identification of vocal cords via fiberoptic bronchoscope for each training period

    Measured: From start of each training period to identification of vocal cords, not to exceed 10 minutes

  3. Elapsed time to introduction of fiberoptic bronchoscope into the trachea for each training period

    Measured: From start of each training period to introduction of fiberoptic bronchoscope into the trachea, not to exceed 10 minutes

  4. Success rate of endotracheal intubation for each training period

    Measured: From start of each training period to success of endotracheal intubation, not to exceed 10 minutes

  5. Number of trials

    Number of trials to succeed ventilation, vocal cord identification, fiberoptic bronchoscope introduction, endotracheal intubation for each training period

    Measured: From start of each training period to success of endotracheal intubation, not to exceed 10 minutes

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?

Elapsed time to succeed endotracheal intubation for each training period (time frame: From start of each training period to success of endotracheal intubation, not to exceed 10 minutes). 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 NCT04482166, which also lists 10 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 23 Sep 2021.
