Trial summary

In this study, investigators will research the types and incidence rates of airway complications seen in the perioperative period during airway management. In addition, unlike the literature, the relationship between the airway equipment used and perioperative airway complications will be investigated. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 75 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study was prospective and observational. There is no grouping. Oral and written informed consent will be obtained from the patients in the preoperative ward or in the preoperative preparation room of the operating room. Patients scheduled for elective operation under general anesthesia whose consents were obtained will be included in the study. Airway management techniques and equipment used will not be interfered with. After the patient's airway management is completed: the following data will be recorded. * Types of equipment: laryngoscopes, face masks, oral airways, styli, plugs, etc. * Professional experience of the airway management practitioner (in years). * If advanced, type of airway complication (bleeding, dental damage, mucosal damage, etc.), number of attempts.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients between the ages of 18 and 75.
  • Patients who will undergo elective surgery.
  • Patients to be operated under general anesthesia.
  • Patients without difficult airway markers

Who cannot join

  • Patients to be operated with emergency surgical indication.
  • Patients to be operated with regional anesthesia.
  • Patients with expected difficult airway markers.

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Assistive Airway Equipment on Intubation-Related Events in the Perioperative Period

In this study, investigators will research the types and incidence rates of airway complications seen in the perioperative period during airway management. In addition, unlike the literature, the relationship between the airway equipment used and perioperative airway complications will be investigated.

Read the detailed description

Complications related to airway management rarely occur in the operating room; however, these complications can lead to life-threatening situations. There are many studies on the types and incidence rates of airway management complications in the perioperative period. However, although the types and incidence rates of airway complications have been investigated in these studies, the effect of airway equipment used in airway management on complications has not been investigated. There are many equipment used in airway management. Laryngoscopes, face masks, oral airway devices and many assistant airway management devices are used as basic equipment. Different airway equipment may be used in each center in each case. There is no standard between centers in this regard.

In this study, investigators will primarily research the types and incidence rates of airway complications seen in the perioperative period during airway management similar to the existing literature. In addition, unlike the literature, the relationship between the airway equipment used and perioperative airway complications will be investigated.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Successful airway managementProcedure or surgery

    • Types of equipment: Traditional oral airways, new airways, etc.
    • Professional experience of the airway management practitioner (in years).
    • If advanced, type of airway complication (bleeding, dental damage, mucosal damage, etc.), number of attempts will be recorded separately for each patient.

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of airway complications seen in the induction of anesthesia.

    The incidence of complications (mucosal bleeding, tooth damage, etc.) that may occur during induction of anesthesia with different airway devices will be investigated.

    Measured: The first 15 minutes during induction of anesthesia

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Airway Management and Airway Complication of Anaesthesia, run by Kocaeli City Hospital at 2 sites 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 4 inclusion and 3 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 3 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

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?

The incidence of airway complications seen in the induction of anesthesia. (time frame: The first 15 minutes during induction of anesthesia). 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 3 Oct 2024.
