Comparing breathing tube types for women having thyroid surgery
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Infections, Lungs & breathing, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial is testing different types of breathing tubes used during thyroid surgery in women. It aims to find which tube works best to keep the airway safe and reduce side effects.

This study compares different sizes of a specialized breathing tube (endotracheal tube) used during surgery to see which size causes less sore throat afterward. If you're having elective surgery under general anesthesia, this trial may help reduce your post-surgery discomfort.
This study compares two ways of checking the pressure of the breathing tube in your windpipe during surgery: the standard method (feeling the cuff by hand) versus a special measuring device. The goal is to see if using the device reduces problems after surgery, like sore throat or other side effects.
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 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 tests a small change in how doctors place a breathing tube for surgery. By gently rotating the tube before inserting it, they hope to reduce sore throats after surgery.
This study compares two ways of giving anesthesia during thyroid surgery: one through a vein and one through inhaled gas. The goal is to see which method leads to fewer breathing or throat problems after surgery, which may help you recover more comfortably.
