Comparison Study of the McGrath MAC Video Laryngoscope With the King Vision

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Video Laryngoscopic Device Usage in Novice Users
• Interventions: Procedure: McGrath MAC video laryngoscope; Procedure: King Vision video laryngoscope

• Registration Number: NCT02316769
• Lead Sponsor: Vanderbilt University Medical Center

Brief Summary

In this study, the investigators compare the effectiveness of two relatively new video laryngoscopes, McGrath MAC (Covidien, Dublin Ireland) and the King Vision (King Systems, Noblesville, IN), by practitioners experienced in airway management but with limited exposure to these two devices. Our hypothesis was that, the McGrath MAC device would require fewer intubation attempts and shorter intubation times than the King Vision when performed by novice users.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Intubation Success on First Attempt as Measured by End Tidal Carbon Dioxide	participants were followed up to the point the video device is removed from the airway, classified as under 90 seconds.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Time to Intubation	Intubation time was initiated at the time of entry of the study device beyond the teeth/gum line and the intubation time was stopped when the study device was removed beyond the same point.	Number of patients intubated in less than 90 seconds
