NCT05243758

Brief Summary

Endotracheal intubation plays an important role in general anesthesia. Complications can be prevented by using alternative airway devices in predetermined difficult intubation cases. In this study, the investigators aimed to compare the results of endotracheal intubation with video fiberscope and DCI video laryngoscope devices of two different experienced physicians (E and H).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • Intubation times,

    The moment when the endotracheal intubation tube was passed between the vocal cords following the vocal cord image obtained with the device was recorded in seconds. In endotracheal intubation performed with a video fiberscope, the end of the fiberscope with a camera passing through the vocal cords, and in endotracheal intubation performed with a DCI video laryngoscope, the intubation tube passing between the vocal cords was counted as successful intubation time.

    during intubation

  • Number of attempts

    The procedure will be considered unsuccessful if intubation is unsuccessful in three attempts, if the intubation process exceeds three minutes, or if the peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) is \<90% during this period. If this situation was encountered, it was planned to ventilate the patient with an anesthesia mask until the oxygen saturation approached 100% and to use alternative airway devices.

    during intubation for patients,

  • Time to find the glottis:

    The time from the moment the device entered between the patient's anterior incisors until the vocal cords were seen was recorded in seconds.

    during intubation for patients

  • Blood pressure

    Hemodynamic parameters; heart rate (/min), systolic blood pressure (mmHg), diastolic blood pressure (mmHg), mean arterial pressure (mmHg), and SpO2 were recorded before induction (baseline), during intubation, at 1st, 2nd and 5th minutes after intubation

    During intubation, at 1st, 2nd and 5th minutes after intubation

  • Pulse oximeter

    Oximetry is a convenient and painless alternative to needlesticks, is simple to use, and provides immediate data. These advantages make oximetry an invaluable tool for determination the client's need for oxygen therapy and assessing effectiveness of therapy. The oximeter registers arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2). An SaO2 greater than 95% is considered normal, whereas values lower than 93% usually indicate the need for oxygen therapy and further assessment.

    Before induction (baseline), during intubation, at 1st, 2nd and 5th minutes after intubation

Interventions

One of the classical alternatives to laryngoscopy in difficult endotracheal intubation is video laryngoscopyvideo fiberscope( Karl Storz GmbH \&Co. KG, Tuttlingen, Germany). Reaching the image from the patient with pre- and from the cervical point of view, or from the cervical point of view, to be completed with a good view from a large screen to be completed with an image before and within intubation. It also facilitates learning in education.
