Comparison of simple laryngoscopy with and without camera stylet for intubation

The aim of the study is to compare simple laryngoscopy versus stylet with a camera in terms of time and number of times required for intubation of patients requiring general anesthesia in the operating room of Sina Hospital.

A clinical trial with a control group, with a parallel group, three blind strains, randomized, phase 3 on 90 patients, random block method was used to randomly assign people.

In this plan, patients in need of general anesthesia are randomly divided into two groups, one group is intubated by simple laryngoscopy and the other group is intubated by laryngoscopy and intubation with a camera stylet. The camera stylet includes a camera with a maximum diameter of 5.5 mm, at the tip of a rigid and flexible wire or a flexible metal rod. Entered patients and data analyzers do not know in which group they are placed.

The inclusion criteria of patients includes all patients who have been under general anesthesia and need a tracheal tube number 7 and above. Exclusion criteria include patients who need an endotracheal tube smaller than 7, and also patients who need awake intubation due to their clinical status and history of previous diseases, cannot be included in this study.

Patients who were randomly included in the study and in addition to simple laryngoscopy are intubated with a Macintosh laryngoscope by a stylet with a camera that is placed inside the tracheal tube.

In this study, random block method is used for random allocation of people. In order to be able to compare people and maintain balance, the samples are divided into two equal groups by block randomization method. In this method, the size of the blocks is used randomly (blocks 2, 4, 8) with an equal number of each group in each block. For example, in the block of 4 people, 2 treatments and 2 controls are placed. or in the block of 8, 4 treatments and 4 controls are placed. To avoid revealing the last allocation in each block, the blocks themselves are also randomly selected. For example, the selected block is 4, for each person in the study, one sheet is removed from the block of 4, which is randomly assigned to one of the intervention or control groups, and this process continues until the sheets are finished. Again, the block of 4 is returned to the table drawer, and to determine the group of other people, a block is randomly selected again, which may be 8 or 4, etc., and this process continues until the sample size is exhausted.

After the final analysis, the information is published in the form of graphs and tables.

The access period starts one year after the results are published.
