Comparing two drugs for easier breathing tube placement
Treatments studied
This trial compares two medicines—remifentanil and rocuronium—to see which helps doctors place a breathing tube more easily during anesthesia. It may help you if you are having routine surgery and need a tube for breathing support.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests two different muscle relaxant drugs—rocuronium and succinylcholine—to see which one helps doctors place a breathing tube faster during emergency anesthesia. It may be a good fit for people who need general anesthesia for surgery and have either a high body mass index or a difficult airway.
