About this study

Official title: Orotracheal Intubation with the ORION Videolaryngoscope Versus the King Vision Videolaryngoscope in Adult Patients Without Predictors of a Difficult Airway

This study aims to compare the ORION video laryngoscope with the King Vision video laryngoscope for orotracheal intubation in patients without predictors of difficult airway scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia.

Read the detailed description

The video laryngoscope, compared to direct laryngoscopy, provides better visualization of the laryngeal and glottic structures, a higher success rate for intubation on the first attempt, and a lower incidence of complications such as mucosal injury, dental injury, and esophageal intubations. Despite the advantages offered by video laryngoscopy, its use is not widespread in developing countries due to high costs. For this reason, the ORION video laryngoscope was developed as a low-cost, reusable device that can undergo high-level disinfection. It is designed using additive manufacturing and meets the standards for biocompatibility, rigidity, and resistance. Additionally, it has undergone preclinical testing in simulation models where anesthesiologists have approved its use in real clinical scenarios. In this study, patients scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia without predictors of difficult airway will be included and randomized to be intubated with either the ORION video laryngoscope or the King Vision video laryngoscope. The study will compare the success of intubation on the first attempt, the time taken for intubation, the level of visualization of the glottic structures, and the associated complications between the two video laryngoscopes.

What participants receive

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

  • Orotracheal intubationDevice

    Patients who meet the inclusion criteria and sign the informed consent form will be intubated with the ORION or King Vision video laryngoscope according to randomisation.

Study groups in NCT06622538
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Videolaryngoscope King VisionActive comparatorThe King Vision video laryngoscope used in this study has a 45° angulation, with a disposable No. 3 blade and no channel for the orotracheal tube.
Receives: Device: Orotracheal intubation
Videolaryngoscope ORIONExperimentalThe ORION video laryngoscope is designed by additive manufacturing, has the same dimensions as a Macintosh No. 3 blade, with 45° angulation, is biocompatible and reusable when subjected to high-level disinfection with 2% Glutaraldehyde for 40 minutes. It has an endoscopic camera fully covered in the body of the videolaryngoscope of 8 mm diameter with 2 megapixels with a resolution of 1280x720, has a viewing angle of 70°, has 6 LEDS with adjustable intensity and the camera has an anti-fogging system and can be connected to any mobile device with Android operating system through a free application. (AN98 Version 2.2.0). It complies with ISO 7376:2020 standards for orotracheal intubation laryngoscopes because its blade withstands a stiffness of more than 60 Newtons and a resistance of more than 150 Newtons.
Receives: Device: Orotracheal intubation

What is being measured

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

  1. Successful first attempt

    Measurement of orotracheal intubations obtained in the first attempt of videolaryngoscopy with the two videolaryngoscopes, successful orotracheal intubation will be corroborated by capnography. Measured in percentage (%).

    Measured: After the endotracheal intubation completed

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Intubation time

    Time elapsed from the time the video laryngoscope blade crosses the dental arch until the orotracheal tube is inserted into the trachea, this time will be measured for each video laryngoscope. Measured in seconds (s).

    Measured: After the endotracheal intubation completed

  2. Laryngeal visualisation measured with the Cormack Lehane scale

    Measurement of visualization of glottic structures using the Cormack Lehane scale in grade I, II, II and IV obtained with both video laryngoscopes. Measured in percentage (%).

    Measured: After the endotracheal intubation completed

  3. Laryngeal visualisation measured with the POGO scale

    Measurement of the visualization of the glottic structures using the POGO (Percentage of Glottic Opening) scale from 0% to 100% obtained with both video laryngoscopes. Measured in percentage (%).

    Measured: After the endotracheal intubation completed

  4. Esophageal intubation

    Measurement of the number of esophageal intubations obtained with both video laryngoscopes. Measured in percentage (%)

    Measured: After the endotracheal intubation completed

  5. Complications

    Measurement of complications (mucosal, lip, oral, pharyngeal and laryngeal injury, total or partial fracture of a tooth and Hypoxemia) that occur with the use of the ORION and King Vision Videolaryngoscopes. Measured in percent (%)

    Measured: After the endotracheal intubation completed

  6. Number of video laryngoscopy attempts

    Measurement of the number of video laryngoscopy attempts to successful intubation with both video laryngoscopes. Measurement in percentage (%)

    Measured: After the endotracheal intubation completed

  7. Intubation failure

    Three videolaryngoscopies with duration of 120 seconds each without achieving orotracheal intubation. The number of intubation failures of both videolaryngoscopes will be measured in percentage (%).

    Measured: After the endotracheal intubation completed

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Orotracheal intubation in people with Orotracheal Intubation and Videolaryngoscopes (VL), run by Hospital General de México Dr. Eduardo Liceaga at 1 site in Mexico.

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 6 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 25 Feb 2025. 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 Mexico. 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?

Successful first attempt (time frame: After the endotracheal intubation completed). 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 25 Feb 2025.
