About this study

Official title: Video Laryngoscopy Versus Direct Laryngoscopy for Elective Airway Management in Pediatrics Anesthesia, Comparison of Out-comes

The goal of this interventional study is to compare the effectiveness of direct laryngoscopy vs. video laryngoscopy in paediatric population aged 2 to 8 years presenting for elective surgeries having uncomplicated airways.

The primary outcome measures include:

  1. Time taken for succesful insertion and confirmation of ETT in patients using both techniques seprately.
  2. Rate of complications and failed attempts compared between both modalities.
Read the detailed description

The comparision of efficacy of Video Laryngoscopy for pediatric airway vs Direct Laryngoscopy is the goal of this study, Safety of the patients will be the utmost priority with careful case selection alongwith proper informed detailed consent from the guardians of the children.

PROCEDURE:

After induction of General Anesthesia four minutes of proper bag mask ventilation to allow for proper intubating conditions will be done. The time taken from the insertion of the laryngoscopic blade to the best glottic view acheived by the specific technique will be noted seperately and then the time to the succesful acheivement of lung inflation with the proper placement of ETT will be noted seperately, both of these parameters will be recorded.

If in a patient airway is not secured even after 3 attempts by a specific technique the technique would be altered and patient would be excluded from our research.

MATERIALS:

Randomized allotment of patients into the 2 groups i.e Direct Laryngoscopy and Video Laryngoscopy would be done.

Being tested
Video Laryngoscope, Direct laryngoscope

What participants receive

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

  • Video LaryngoscopeDevice

  • Direct laryngoscopeDevice

Video Laryngoscopy groupActive comparatorGroup of patients in which Video Laryngoscopy will be used to secure airways.
Receives: Device: Video Laryngoscope

What is being measured

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

  1. .Time taken to acheive the best possible view of the glottis.

    The time from insertion of laryngoscope in the mouth to the best possible view of the glottis.

    Measured: 4 Min. post muscle relaxant administration to 6 Min. post muscle relaxant administration

  2. Time taken to acheive succesful Endotracheal Intubation.

    The time from the insertion of the laryngoscopic blade in the mouth to the correct placement of ETT confirmed by the waveform capnorgraphy.

    Measured: 4 Min 30 seconds post muscle relaxant administration to 7 Min post muscel relaxant administration.

  3. No. of Intubation attempts needed

    Total No. of attempts(max 3 attempts with the same technique) to secure airway.

    Measured: 4 Min. post muscle relaxation administration to 15 Min. post muscle relaxant administration.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Hemodynamic changes at different intervals.

    Changes in heart rate will be assesed during attempts and to a fixed amount of time after succesfully securing the airways.

    Measured: During attempts to 1 min, 5 min, and 10 min post succesful intubation.

  2. Hemodynamic changes at different intervals.

    Changes in blood pressure will be assesed during attempts and to a fixed amount of time after succesfully securing the airways.

    Measured: During attempts to 1 min, 5 min, and 10 min post succesful intubation.
