Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators will evaluate the endotracheal intubation using video laryngoscopy versus conventional direct laryngoscopy on intubation success, quantified by the number of intubation attempts. The question is important because video laryngoscopes are more expensive than conventional direct laryngoscopes. The additional cost might be justified if video systems improve intubation success and reduce airway trauma. But if they do not, the extra cost would not be justified


Clinical Trial Description

The investigators propose to enroll participants scheduled for elective or emergent cardiac, thoracic, or vascular surgery in the designated operating room suite who require endotracheal intubation for general anesthesia. The investigators plan a cluster randomized multiple crossover design, where each cluster is crossed over to the other treatment in the next period. The operating suites will be divided into 2 separate clusters consisting of 11 operating suites each. Randomization will consist of randomizing cluster 1 to use either video laryngoscope or direct laryngoscope, and cluster 2 to the alternative device in one-week blocks. ;
