Patient Experience Following Awake Fibreoptic Intubation Compared to Asleep Fibreoptic Intubation

Intubation;Difficult Clinical Trial

Official title:
Comparison of Patients' Experience Following Awake and Asleep Fibreoptic Intubation

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this observational study is to explore and compare patients' experiences of asleep and awake fibreoptic intubation using a semi qualitative patient questionnaire. In particular, investigators will investigate the occurrence of negative experiences, such as distress and discomfort.

Clinical Trial Description

This study aims to investigate whether there are significant differences in aspects of patient experience during AFOI and asleep fibreoptic intubation. The study will be conducted at University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust and Oxford University Hospitals Foundation Trust. Investigators are not aware of any studies to date comparing patient experiences of AFOI with asleep fibreoptic intubation to ascertain the significant differences in side effects. If there is no evidence of any significant difference in negative patient experiences, this might help to encourage anaesthetists to reduce their threshold for AFOI and to use this as first choice for anticipated difficult airway management. A member of the research team will approach the patient about the study and obtain written informed consent, if the patient is willing and able to participate. The participant will be provided with a specifically designed questionnaire, covering several aspects of patient experience. A mixture of free response answers and numerical rating scales will be used. The member of the research team approaching the patient with the questionnaire will be blinded to the intubation procedure, ensuring consistent application of the questionnaire and minimising bias. This will then be the end of the study for the participant. ;
