Clinical Trial Summary

The undersurface of the disposable blade of the Glidescope will be lubricated by a jelly substance to facilitate its entrance to the mouth without trauma to the soft tissues. In addition the stylet ( Gliderite) shape will be modified to be an obtuse angle. This technique modification will be applied for obese patients with suspected difficult intubation criteria who are scheduled for bariatric surgeries.


Clinical Trial Description

Endotracheal tube diameter size 7.5 mm and disposable rigid blade size 3 for the female patients and ETT diameter size 8.00 mm and disposable rigid blade size 4 for the male patients will be prepared. The under surface of the blade will be lubricated by soluble jelly, taking care not to touch the camera source of light. The stylet will be more obtuse angle than the standard shape. The stylet will be lubricated also before being fitted inside the endotracheal tube. The blade will be introduced inside the mouth midline, the tube will be held from the upper third and introduced in the midline also sliding over the blade and introduced inside the glottis. Once the tip of the tube introduced inside the glottis, the stylet will be removed and the tube will be advanced more inside the trachea. The equality of air entry will be assessed by the stethoscope and the tube will by fixed by adhesive tape after inflating the cuff. If during intubation the used technique failed to introduce the tube, we will do ETT rotation inside the mouth or upward stylet angulation outside the mouth then will be reintroduced again. If Glidescope failed to intubate, we will use intubating LMA to intubate the patients. If all trials failed to intubate the patients. Sugamadex 16 mg/Kg will be injected to awaken the patients. After intubation the large gastric tube will be introduced in the esophagus under vision by the Glidescope help also. Group 2: The second group will be a control group, they will be handled by the standard shape of the stylet and the blade without lubrication. ;
