NCT02267759

Brief Summary

McGrath videolaryngoscopy avoids the use of Magill forceps for nasotracheal intubation, thereby reducing intubation time and complications, especially in patients with a difficult airway. This study was performed to investigate whether McGrath videolaryngoscopy is superior to Macintosh laryngoscopy for routine nasotracheal intubation in expected normal airways, as judged by the time to intubation and ease of intubation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • time to intubation

    time the nasotracheal tube was inserted into nares until endtidal CO2 was detected

    4 min after anesthetic induction

Study Arms (2)

McGrath

EXPERIMENTAL

Nasotracheal intubation was performed with McGrath videolaryngoscopy

Device: Macintosh laryngoscopy

Macintosh

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Nasotracheal intubation was performed with Macintosh direct laryngoscopy

Device: McGrath videolaryngoscopy

Interventions

After the softened nasotracheal tube was inserted into the nares until its tip passed through the posterior nares, McGrath videolaryngoscope was introduced into the mouth and the nasotracheal tube was advanced.

Macintosh

After the softened nasotracheal tube was inserted into the nares until its tip passed through the posterior nares, Macintosh laryngoscope was introduced into the mouth and the nasotracheal tube was advanced.
