NCT ID: NCT06447818 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Obstructive Sleep Apnea of Adult

Changes in Difficult Airway Markers After Surgery for Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Syndrome

Start date: May 15, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

This study investigates the changes in difficult airway markers at 6 months post operatively in patients undergoing obstructive sleep apnoea surgery

NCT ID: NCT06346119 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Difficult or Failed Intubation

Evaluation of the Impact of Touch Relaxation in Sedated Intubated Patients Hospitalized in Intensive Care at Niort Hospital

ETDR
Start date: February 27, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized prospective study. This objective is the impact of "relaxing touch" on the use of chemical restraint for patients in intensive care from the lifting of sedation until extubation.

NCT ID: NCT05852899 Completed - Preterm Birth Clinical Trials

Evaluation of Preoperative Risk Factors in Children

Start date: June 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

1. The investigators aimed to make a more advanced risk assessment in predicting preoperative intensive care unit admission in pediatric patients. 2. The investigators aimed to better define the pediatric patient population and identify preoperative risk factors in detail in order to reduce perioperative complications.

NCT ID: NCT05190757 Completed - Clinical trials for Airway Complication of Anesthesia

Supraglottic Airway Needed To Achieve Ventilation

Start date: January 21, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this research is to compare if insertion of laryngeal mask airway (LMA) vs. use of face mask, will reduce the time needed to achieve adequate ventilation prior to insertion of the breathing tube.

NCT ID: NCT05143346 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Difficult or Failed Intubation

A Comparison Between Using Video Stylet and Video Laryngoscope in Difficult Intubation of Traumatic Patients .

Start date: October 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to compare the visualization of the glottis, the time for tracheal intubation, the success rate of intubation, and the need for manoeuvres to optimize the view using video stylet or video laryngoscope in patients with expected difficult intubations.

NCT ID: NCT05043779 Recruiting - Obesity, Morbid Clinical Trials

Evaluation of Preoperative Nasoendoscopy to Predict Difficult Intubation

Start date: August 12, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Despite the availability of different methods for airway assessment, unexpectedly difficult intubations occur at a frequency of up to 15%. A variety of pre-intubation clinical screening tests have been advocated to predict difficult laryngoscopy and airway but their usefulness is limited in obese patients. Could awake invasive airway assessment be more predictive for difficult airways in obese patients? The use of nasendoscopy assessment for the airway could be a useful additional invasive tool to predict the difficult airway in obese

NCT ID: NCT04259021 Completed - Laryngoscopy Clinical Trials

The Voice Analysis as a Preoperative Prediction Method of a Difficult Airway

Start date: March 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Before an anesthetic procedure, airway management is essential to ensure adequate ventilation and breathing of the patient during the entire surgical process. The preanesthetic evaluation of the airway allows for proper planning, facilitates the anticipation of human resources and necessary means to face the possible challenges in a safe and efficient way. Orofacial mask ventilation and endotracheal intubation are a crucial step in general anesthesia. Most of the time, management is not complicated, but when an unpredicted difficult airway occurs, it is currently one of the most important challenges to face as an anesthesiologist. These situations are rare as the prevalence of a difficult airway is approximately 2.2% of the general population. When there is a case of a difficult airway and adequate management is not achieved, very serious complications may occur including brain damage, cardio-respiratory arrest, aspiration of gastric content, traumatic airway injuries, tooth damage, unnecessary surgical access to keep the airway permeable or death. For these reasons, in anesthesia, an unforeseen difficult airway is considered a crisis situation. Therefore, a preoperative airway assessment is paramount. Traditional predictive tests evaluate multiple anthropometric characteristics in which the physical presence of the patient is mandatory. However, no test can currently predict a difficult airway based on a single characteristic nor in the patient's absence. Nowadays, the optimization of resources and new technologies have increased interest in developing new tests or methods for preoperatively assessing the difficulty of the airway and new methods of airway evaluation have been proposed. As recently demonstrated, the detection of a difficult airway depends not only on the morphology but also on functional traits of the airway. Some studies propose the analysis of voice parameters as a reflection of anatomical and functional features of the superior airway. The investigators propose that the analysis of voice characteristics could reflect the airway's anatomy and therefore the investigators will be able to predict a difficult airway, and this would enable the development of a voice-based assessment method which could have an promising role in facilitating telematic airway evaluation.
