Testing a standard airway tool in patients with normal mouth opening
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study looks at how well a standard laryngoscope blade works for guiding a breathing tube during anesthesia in people who have no expected airway problems. It aims to see if the blade fits well and works as intended.

This study looks at how neck size relates to airway management during surgery. It may help doctors prepare better for placing a breathing tube.
This study tests two tools used to help you breathe during general anesthesia for planned surgery. The goal is to find out which one is easier and safer for patients like you.
This study looks at how the size and shape of your mouth and throat affect how doctors place a breathing tube (video laryngoscopy). It aims to find simple bedside measurements that predict how easy the tube will be to insert, which could improve planning before surgery.
This study tests a newer type of video laryngoscope (a tool with a camera to help place a breathing tube) to see if it works well and safely for all adult patients having surgery with general anesthesia. The goal is to make sure the tube is placed correctly and to learn why it might be difficult in some patients, helping improve anesthesia care for everyone.
This trial tests a new device called SafeLM that helps you breathe during surgery. It may be used instead of a standard breathing tube for people having planned surgery with general anesthesia.
This trial compares a new video laryngoscope to a standard one for placing a special breathing tube used in lung surgeries. It aims to see which device works better for patients having planned chest operations.
