Airway management study during anesthesia with intubation
This study observes how breathing tube placement (intubation) and other airway care are done during general anesthesia in the operating room and in other anesthesia settings. It may help improve airway management practices in different clinical environments, but you would typically not receive a new treatment as part of an experimental trial.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be age 18 or older
- Be scheduled to receive general anesthesia that requires advanced airway management (for example, placing a breathing tube)
- The procedure must happen in the operating room or a non-operating-room anesthesia setting
- You should not be having airway management during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
- You should not be intubated because you are critically ill from the underlying condition

This study watches how breathing tubes and masks are managed during anesthesia to improve safety. It is for any adult who needs airway help during a procedure, whether planned or emergency.
This study tests an automated tool to help doctors assess your airway before surgery, aiming to make breathing tube placement safer. It is for adults who are already scheduled for general anesthesia with a breathing tube.
This study collects information about how breathing tubes are placed in emergency room patients to improve safety and outcomes. It may help doctors learn better ways to manage airways during emergencies.
This trial studies care during placing a breathing tube (tracheal intubation) in children having general anesthesia. It may help improve safety and outcomes around the breathing tube process.
This study compares two different types of breathing tubes for people having surgery under general anesthesia. The goal is to see which tube is easier to place on the first try when using a special video-guided tool.
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.
