Trial summary

Morbid obesity is a growing disease. Intubations of these patients mostly difficult. Video laryngoscopes have to be used during the intubation of these patients. The intubation of men is more complicated and difficult than obese women. There were no trials compared to the new video laryngoscopes in morbidly obese men. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Airtraq in Obese and Nonobese Men

Morbid obesity is a growing disease. Intubations of these patients mostly difficult. Video laryngoscopes have to be used during the intubation of these patients. The intubation of men is more complicated and difficult than obese women. There were no trials compared to the new video laryngoscopes in morbidly obese men. Patients will be divided into two groups; non-obese and klas 2-3 obese. Airtraq will be used for their intubation. The time for intubation will be the primary aim of this prospective randomized study. The insertion time, perioperative hemodynamic variables, and postoperative complications will also be recorded.

What is being measured

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

  1. intubation time

    the intubation time will be recorded beginning the insertion of the Airtraq through the mouth still the endotracheal tube seen passing through the vocal cords

    Measured: 50 seconds

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. insertion time

    inserting the Airtraq through the mouth till the optimal glottic vizualization occurred

    Measured: 20 seconds

  2. peroperative hemodynamic variable

    heart rate

    Measured: 4 hours
