About this study

Official title: For Nasotracheal Intubation With Video Rigid Stylet, Which Nostril is Better? A Randomized Clinical Trial

To determine which nostril is more suitable for nasotracheal intubation with video rigid stylet.

Read the detailed description

Head and neck surgeries usually require nasal intubation, which allows leeway for operative maneuvering in the mouth, pharynx, larynx, and neck. Previous studies have found that the right nostril is more appropriate for nasal intubation using direct laryngoscope or videolaryngoscope. It has been shown that the optical rigid stylet was also an appropriate tool for nasal intubation. However, nasal intubation with rigid optical stylet is technically different from that with laryngoscope. It is unknown whether the choice of nostril could affect the intubation using rigid optical stylet. The main aim is to determine which nostril is more suitable for nasal intubation with video rigid stylet.

What is being measured

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

  1. Total time for intubation

    The duration from when the device tip entered the nostril to when the tube entered the trachea, as confirmed by capnography.

    Measured: Procedure (From when the device tip entered the nostril to when the tube entered the trachea.)

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Total success rate

    Total success rate of nasal intubation with video rigid stylet.

    Measured: Procedure (Up to the tube entered the trachea.)

  2. First-attempt success

    First-attempt success of nasal intubation with video rigid stylet.

    Measured: First-attempt of nasal intubation with video rigid stylet.

  3. Times of intubation-attempts

    Times of intubation-attempts.

    Measured: Procedure (From when the device tip entered the nostril to when the tube entered the trachea.)

  4. The time for device insertion

    The duration from when the device tip entered the nostril to when it passed through the vocal cord.

    Measured: Procedure (From when the device tip entered the nostril to when it passed through the vocal cord.)

  5. The time for tube insertion

    The duration from when the tip of the device passed through the vocal cord to when the tube was confirmed inserted into the trachea.

    Measured: Procedure (From when the tip of the device passed through the vocal cord to when the tube was confirmed inserted into the trachea.)

  6. Incidence and severity of epistaxis

    Incidence and severity of epistaxis

    Measured: Procedure (Up to completion of intubation)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Video rigid stylet in people with Intubation and Video Rigid Stylet, run by Peking University at 1 site in China.

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 6 inclusion and 11 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 29 Apr 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 China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Total time for intubation (time frame: Procedure (From when the device tip entered the nostril to when the tube entered the trachea.)). 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 NCT05218590, which also lists 4 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 29 Apr 2022.
