About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Effects of Nasopharyngeal and Oropharyngeal Airway Use on Gastric Insufflation in Patients Who Are Expected to Have Difficult Mask Ventilation

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal airway on gastric insufflation in patients undergoing general anesthesia and expected difficult mask ventilation. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Is there a difference between the presence of gastric insufflation in the use of nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal airways?
  • Is there a difference between the antral area sizes measured before and after ventilation After general anesthesia induction, nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal airway will be placed in participants and real-time ultrasonographic gastric antral area imaging will be performed during mask ventilation. Researchers will compare the effects of nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal airway use on gastric insufflation.
Read the detailed description

Patients who are expected to have difficult mask ventilation and receive general anesthesia will be included in the study. After preoperative gastric antral area measurements of the patients by ultrasonography, preoxygenation will be applied and anesthesia induction will be performed. Real-time gastric ultrasonography will be performed during pressure-controlled mask ventilation for 2 minutes after nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal airway insertion, and then antral area measurement will be repeated. After the trachea was intubated, the antral area measurement was once again performed. At the 30th, 60th, 90th and 120th seconds of ventilation, patients' SpO2, EtO2, EtCO2, peak airway pressure, tidal volume, leak volumes and hemodynamic changes will be recorded.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing nasal airway and oral airway in people with Gastric Insufflation and Difficult Mask Ventilation, run by Diskapi Teaching and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 5 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 25 Jul 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Presence of gastric insufflation (time frame: During 2 minutes mask ventilation). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05832554, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 25 Jul 2024.
