NCT06759038

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to know which type of laryngoscope is better for Double Lumen Tube (DLT) insertion, in participants undergoing elective thoracic surgeries. The main question aim to answer is Is C-MAC blade D video laryngoscope better than Macintosh laryngoscope for DLT insertion in term of time taking for intubation and hemodynamic changes to laryngoscopy? Researchers are comparing two groups of participants

  • Participants in Group A are receiving intubation from C-MAC blade D video laryngoscope.
  • Participants in Group B are receiving intubations from Macintosh laryngoscope.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Time for intubation

    1st outcome is time for intubation time for intubation will be noted during intubation of Double Lumen Tube. Time start from introduction of laryngoscope blade till three complete capnograph cycles.

    During induction of anesthesia, It will take 10 to 15 minutes

  • Heart Rate changes to laryngoscopy

    Heart Rate of a patient will be noted before induction of Anaesthesia as baseline heart rate and will be labelled as 0. Then at 1 minute, at 3 minutes and at 5 minutes after intubation, and labelled as 1 ,3 \& 5.

    From enrollment till completion it will take approximately 24 hours

  • Blood pressure changes to laryngoscopy

    Changes of blood pressure to laryngoscopy as Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP), Diastolic Blood Pressure (DPB) and Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) will be noted before induction of anesthesia as baseline and labelled as 0. Then at 1 minute, 3 minutes and 5 minutes after intubation and labelled as 1, 3 and 5.

    Time from enrolment to completion will be 24 hours

Study Arms (2)

Video laryngoscope Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Those participants who will randomly assigned for intubations with C-MAC Blade D Video laryngoscope are placed in Group A

Device: C-MAC blade D video laryngoscope

Macintosh laryngoscope Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Those participants who will randomly assigned for intubations with Macintosh Laryngoscope are placed in Group B

Device: Macintosh Laryngoscope

Interventions

C-MAC blade D Video Laryngoscope is used for difficult intubation and for better glottic view

Video laryngoscope Group

Macintosh Laryngoscope is conventional laryngoscope used generally for intubations

Macintosh laryngoscope Group
