About this study

Official title: Validity of Ultrasonography in Predicting Difficult Laryngoscopy and Confirming Endotracheal Intubation in Obese Emergency Surgical Patients

Validity of ultrasonography in predicting difficult laryngoscopy and confirming endotracheal intubation in obese emergency surgical patients

Read the detailed description

The aim of the study is to determine whether preoperative ultrasound assessment of of the upper airway can predict difficult laryngscopy in emergency surgical obese patients , by analysis correlations between ultrasound measurements of anterior cervical soft in the upper airway, and the Cormack-Lehane grade. And evaluate its role in confirming the endotracheal placement The secondary objective was to determine whether clinical screening tests are independent predictors of difficult airway.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Preoperative Ultrasound Assessment of the Upper Airway Can Predict Difficult Laryngscopy in Obese at Emergency Operations, run by Minia University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Sep 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 Egypt. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

prediction of difficult intubation in obese emergency surgical patients by ultrasound (time frame: 30minutes). 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 15 Sep 2022.
