- Device: Pentax
- Registration Number
- NCT03118622
- Lead Sponsor
- Ajou University School of Medicine
- Brief Summary
Comparison of Intubation using Pentax (Pentas AWS, Pentax, Tokyo, Japan) and Macintoch in pediatric patients
- Detailed Description
Pentax video laryngoscope (Pentas AWS, Pentax, Tokyo, Japan) is one of indirect optical laryngoscopes which is recently developed. Several studies have shown that the Pentax-AWS® provides full views of the glottis in the majority of patients. It makes successful tracheal intubation in patients after failed intubation using a Macintosh laryngoscope.
In pediatric patients who is expected to be difficult to intubate, Pentax makes successful intubation.
