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.

- You are not pregnant.
- You are not a prisoner.
- Your breathing tube can be placed in a planned, non-emergency way.

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 trial compares three different tools doctors use to place a breathing tube during surgery. It will help find which device works best for patients needing routine intubation.
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 study compares two types of video laryngoscopes (tools used to help place a breathing tube during surgery) – one with a curved blade (Macintosh) and one with a steeper, angled blade. It aims to see which works best for each person, making intubation safer.
This trial tests whether one type of breathing tube works better than another when used with a video laryngoscope without a stylet during surgery. It aims to help doctors succeed on the first try when placing the tube.
This trial compares two types of video laryngoscopes (visionPRO and Glidescope) to see if one is as good as the other for placing a breathing tube during surgery. If you are having planned surgery with general anesthesia and need a breathing tube, you may be able to join.
