Comparing two types of laryngoscope blades for intubation
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of laryngoscope blades (the tool used to guide a breathing tube) to see which works better for routine intubations. If you are an adult scheduled for a planned breathing tube placement, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are not pregnant.
- You are not a prisoner.
- Your breathing tube can be placed in a planned, non-emergency way.
- Your doctor does not require a specific type of laryngoscope blade for your procedure.

This trial tests which blade (hyperangulated or Macintosh) works better when doctors use a video laryngoscope to place a breathing tube in intensive care patients. It may help improve how intubation is done in the ICU.
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 study compares two video laryngoscopes — devices that help doctors see your airway clearly when placing a breathing tube — to see if one works just as well as the other. It is a non-inferiority trial, meaning it checks that the newer device is not worse than the standard one.
This trial compares two types of video laryngoscopes (Laringocel® and C-MAC®) to see which one works better for placing a breathing tube in adults having planned surgery under general anesthesia. If you are 18 or older and scheduled for elective surgery, you may be able to join.
This trial compares two types of video laryngoscopes (tools with a camera to help place the breathing tube) in children having planned surgery. The aim is to see which one works better for routine 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.
