About this study

Official title: The Effect of Tube Rotation on Passage of Tracheal Tube Through Nasopharynx Into the Oral Cavity in Nasotracheal Intubation

The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of tube rotation on passage of the tracheal tube through the nasopharynx into the oral cavity in nasotracheal intubation.

Read the detailed description

This prospective randomized controlled study was approved by IRB of our institute.

Patients requiring nasotracheal intubation will be screened for eligibility of the study. Then, patients will be randomized to one of two groups; (group I: tube advancement in neutral / group II: tube advancement with the tube counter-clockwise rotated). After induction of anesthesia and muscle relaxation, the preformed nasal RAE (Ring-Adair-Elwyn) tube will be inserted via a nostril approximately 3-4 cm. Next, an anesthesiologist will advance the tube, with it neutral, continuously into the oral cavity of the patients in Group I, while the anesthesiologist will advance the tube, with it rotated counter-clockwise in 90 degree, into the oral cavity of the patients in Group II. After the tube will be placed in the oral cavity, the anesthesiologist will perform nasotracheal intubation with Magill forceps. After that, an investigator will check occurrence of epistaxis due to nasotracheal intubation and its severity with a fiberoptic bronchoscope. After obtainment of all data, investigators will analyze incidence of epistaxis and its severity between two groups.

What participants receive

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

  • nasotracheal intubationProcedure or surgery

    For nasotracheal intubation, the nasal RAE tube will be inserted with it rotated by 90 degrees in counter-clockwise direction for patients in the 'Rotation' arm.

    For nasotracheal intubation, the nasal RAE tube will be inserted without tube rotation for patients in the 'Neutral' arm.

What is being measured

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

  1. tube blockade

    tube blockade when an anesthesiologist is advancing the tracheal tube from the nasal cavity to the oral cavity.

    Measured: during tube advancement from the nasal cavity to the oral cavity

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. epistaxis

    epistaxis due to nasotracheal intubation

    Measured: during nasotracheal intubation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing nasotracheal intubation in people with Nasotracheal Intubation, run by Seoul National University Hospital.

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 1 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Jung-Man Lee, M.D., Ph.D. (+82-2-870-2513, jungman007@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

tube blockade (time frame: during tube advancement from the nasal cavity to the oral cavity). 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 NCT06618625, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Oct 2024.
