About this study

Official title: Accuracy of Broselow Tape and Cole Formulation in Predicting Uncuffed Endotracheal Tube Size in Pediatric Patients

This study aimed to determine the accuracy of modified Broselow tape measurements compared to Cole formula in predicting the size of uncuffed endotracheal tubes in Indonesian pediatrics

Read the detailed description

110 subjects were given informed consent before enrolling the study and randomized into two groups, modified Broselow Tape and Cole formula. Preoperatively, prediction of suitable ETT size was performed based on Cole formula and Modified Broselow Tape. In the operating theatre, general anesthesia induction was performed with sevoflurane 4-8 vol%, fentanyl 2 μcg/kg BW, and atracurium 0.5 mg/kg BW. Laryngoscopy was performed, and an uncuffed polyvinyl chloride endotracheal tubes, whose size was based on the Cole formula, was inserted. An appropriate size of the endotracheal tube was confirmed if the endotracheal tube could go through the cricoid ring smoothly, and no air leakage found when ventilating with an inspiratory pressure of 15-20 cmH2O. The surgery and anesthesia would proceed if the correct size of the endotracheal tube were successfully inserted. If the tube couldn't pass the cricoid smoothly or air leakage was found when ventilated with an inspiratory pressure of 15-20 cmH2O, the endotracheal tube should be replaced with a bigger or smaller size.

What is being measured

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

  1. Appropriate size of uncuffed endotracheal tube

    endotracheal tube could go through the cricoid ring smoothly, and no air leakage found when ventilating with an inspiratory pressure of 15-20 cmH2O

    Measured: before procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Modification Broselow Tape and Cole Formula in people with Predicting Uncuffed Endotracheal Tube Size in Pediatric Anesthesia, run by Universitas Indonesia at 1 site in Indonesia.

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 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 3 May 2021. 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 Indonesia. 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?

Appropriate size of uncuffed endotracheal tube (time frame: before procedure). 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 NCT04869410, which also lists 5 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?
