Clinical Trial Summary

Although VLs improve glottic visualization, on many occasions it may not be accompanied by intubation at the first attempt, because the endotracheal tube has to pass a sharp angle to enter the trachea. To avoid this limitation, a new flexible tip bougie is designed to flexibly navigate the distal tip and help facilitate precise insertion of the endotracheal tube in the trachea. The flexible tip bougie has an integrated slider along the surface which moves the tip anterior and posterior while the pre-curved distal portion of shaft allows the angulation to provide anterior flexion. This new flexible tip bougie could be used as a rescue when first intubation failure using the videolaryngoscopy, or as a first option to improve the percentage of patients intubated at the first attempt.


Clinical Trial Description

The purpose of this prospective randomized study is to compare successful intubation on the first attempt with the new flexible tip bougie versus endotracheal tube with stylet during awake intubation with videolaryngoscopy in patients with anticipated difficult airway. ;
