About this study

Official title: Comparison of Effectiveness of Mask Ventilation and Endotracheal Tube in Pharynx (TTIP) in Patients With Potential Difficult Airway:A Prospective Randomized and Blinded Trial.

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of TTIP-first ventilation and to compare the efficacy of TTIP first ventilation with the current practice of mask-first ventilation

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • TTIP ventilationDevice

    In TTIP ventilation, an endotracheal tube is inserted via the nostril or oral cavity and subsequently advanced until the tip of the tube reaches approximately the level of the glottis.

  • Mask VentilationDevice

    In mask ventilation, a mask is placed over the nose and mouth.

Study groups in NCT05005390
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
TTIP ventilation, then mask ventilationExperimentalSubjects will first be ventilated with the TTIP technique. If the subjects are adequately ventilated, as defined by carbon dioxide measured during exhalation in at least one of the first three consecutive breaths, ventilation will continue until completion of 10 breaths, for 1 min (Step 1). Subjects will then be ventilated with mask ventilation (Step 2). In Step 1, if ventilation fails with the TTIP technique for all of the first three consecutive breaths, the subject will be crossed over to the mask ventilation. If ventilation fails again with all the first three consecutive breaths after crossover, the study will be terminated. The routine care is resumed including tracheal intubation or laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Patients With Successful Ventilation

    Successful ventilation is defined as expired carbon dioxide with three phases in at least one of the first three consecutive breaths.

    Measured: from start of ventilation to end of ventilation (about 1 minute)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Expired Tidal Volume of Ventilation

    This is measured by readings from the ventilator used in the operating room

    Measured: from start of ventilation to end of ventilation (about 1 minute)

  2. Peak Inspiratory Airway Pressure Achieved

    This is measured by readings from the ventilator used in the operating room

    Measured: from start of ventilation to end of ventilation (about 1 minute)

  3. Dynamic Airway Resistance

    This is defined as the peak inspiratory flow divided by the corresponding airway pressure.

    Measured: from start of ventilation to end of ventilation (about 1 minute)

  4. Satisfaction of the Providers Obtained With Post Ventilation Survey

    Measured: Baseline before start of surgery

  5. Satisfaction of the Providers Obtained With Post Ventilation Survey

    Measured: end of surgery (about 1 hour after start)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing TTIP ventilation and Mask Ventilation in people with Ventilation Therapy; Complications, run by The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Jan 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Patients With Successful Ventilation (time frame: from start of ventilation to end of ventilation (about 1 minute)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Jan 2024.
