About this study

Official title: Airway Management During the Covid-19 Pandemic: A Comparison of Direct Laryngoscopy Versus Video Laryngoscopy

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes a highly contagious infection with the highest viral load in the upper respiratory secretions. Despite using personal protective equipment, SARS-CoV-2 contamination to the healthcare personnel is possible during the airway management of infected patients. Direct laryngoscopy remains as the most common method for endotracheal intubation. Our study aimed to compare the use of video laryngoscopy with direct laryngoscopy for tracheal intubation in adult patients receiving general anesthesia for elective surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Being tested
Videolaryngoscope, Macintosh Laryngoscope

What is being measured

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

  1. Intubation time

    Time from Beginning of Intubation to Full Ventilation of the Lungs

    Measured: First 5 minutes of the operation

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Intubation Comfort

    Scale(0=bad, 1=moderate, 2=good 3=very good)

    Measured: First 5 minutes of the operation

  2. Cormack-Lehane Scoring

    Scale(1= Full view of glottis, 2=Partial view of glottis 3=Only epiglottis seen, none of glottis seen 4=Neither glottis nor epiglottis seen)

    Measured: First 5 minutes of the operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Videolaryngoscope and Macintosh Laryngoscope in people with COVID-19 Pneumonia, run by Van Bölge Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 inclusion and 5 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 9 Mar 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Intubation time (time frame: First 5 minutes of the operation). 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 NCT05121701, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Mar 2022.
