Comparing two ways to place a breathing tube: Tulip versus direct view
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This trial tests if a new device (the Tulip airway) helps people with no training place a breathing tube more easily than the traditional method (direct laryngoscopy). You would practice on a mannequin.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a student in an anesthesia technician program.
- You have no prior experience managing airways (like putting in breathing tubes on real patients).
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are willing to participate in simulation (practice on a mannequin).

This study tests a new device that helps doctors place a breathing tube during training. It compares the new tool with the standard method to see if it works better.
This trial compares two ways of placing a breathing tube in patients who have a difficult airway and need surgery. One method goes through the mouth, the other through the nose, both while you are awake. The goal is to see which method you prefer.
This trial compares two different devices (a video laryngeal mask and a video laryngoscope) used to help you breathe during surgery. It aims to see which tool works better for placing a breathing tube in patients having planned surgery under general anesthesia.
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.
This study helps anesthesiology residents (doctors-in-training) learn how to place special breathing tubes during surgery. Researchers will track how quickly trainees improve and whether their past experience and the type of tool used affects their success.
This trial tests a new airway device called Tulip in adults who are expected to be difficult to ventilate with a mask during surgery. It aims to see if it works better than standard methods.
