NCT ID: NCT00908817 Completed - Tracheal Intubation Clinical Trials

Triamcinolone Paste to Reduce the Incidence of Postoperative Sore Throat

Start date: May 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether triamcinolone paste applied over tracheal tube is effective to reduce the incidence of postoperative sore throat after tracheal intubation.

NCT ID: NCT00888875 Completed - Tracheal Intubation Clinical Trials

ILMA Fastrach Versus I-gel for Fiberoptic Tracheal Intubation

Start date: July 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

We evaluate feasibility of fiberoptic intubation through the "ILMA Fastrach" vs the "i-gel". Both are airway devices to be introduced in the mouth we the possibility to ventilate the patient and furthermore to be a guide to introduce a tracheal tube. We first insert either the ILMA or the i-gel. In a second step, we will introduce a tube through the device, all guided visually through a fiberoptic tool which works as a railroad for the tracheal tube.

NCT ID: NCT00633867 Completed - Tracheal Intubation Clinical Trials

Randomised Controlled Trial of Intubation With the McGrath Series 5 Video Laryngoscope vs the Macintosh Laryngoscope

Start date: February 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The simplicity of use and intuitive function of the McGrath video-laryngoscope suggests it may have a bigger role than as a back-up to conventional direct laryngoscopy and could possibly be the first-line laryngoscope for situations where difficult intubations are more likely or more hazardous. The incidence of difficult or failed intubation for an individual anaesthetist is related to their experience, decreasing as experience increases. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the McGrath laryngoscope when used by relatively inexperienced anaesthetists, who are those most likely to encounter difficulties. The null hypotheses to be tested is that there is no difference between the Macintosh and McGrath laryngoscope in terms of ease and success in intubation.
