Forces used during baby intubation at different table heights
Part of Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study looks at the forces doctors use when inserting a breathing tube into a newborn baby. It tests if changing the height of the resuscitation table affects these forces. This may help find a safer way to intubate and reduce injury risks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two ways of putting a breathing tube into newborn babies: using a video camera to see the airway versus the standard method of looking directly. It aims to find which technique is safer and more effective.
This study compares two ways of placing a breathing tube (fiberoptic intubation) in children during surgery: lying on their side versus lying on their back. It aims to see which position is easier and safer for kids having non-head-and-neck surgeries.
This study compares two types of tools (blades) doctors use to place a breathing tube during an emergency C‑section under general anesthesia. The goal is to see which tool works better and more safely for pregnant patients.
This trial tests if a training program helps doctors intubate newborns faster using a video laryngoscope. It could mean less time without breathing for your baby during an emergency procedure.
This trial compares two methods—videolaryngoscopy and direct laryngoscopy—for placing a breathing tube in newborns who need help breathing during surgery or in the intensive care unit.
This trial studies how different oxygen flow rates affect breathing during the process of placing a breathing tube in babies. It may help clinicians choose safer oxygen settings during routine and urgent (but not life-threatening) airway management.
