Effectiveness of C-MAC Video-stylet Versus C-MAC D- Blade Video-laryngoscope for Tracheal Intubation

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Difficult Mask Ventilation; Difficult Intubation
• Interventions: Device: C-MAC VS; Device: C-MAC VL D -blade

• Registration Number: NCT04759300
• Lead Sponsor: Alexandria University

Brief Summary

Videolaryngoscopy provides a better laryngeal view and do not need airway alignment for tracheal intubation.

Detailed Description

The C-MAC-VS can be connected easily to the same C- MAC monitor and Pocket Monitor without requiring any additional light source and camera. This device is great for cases with limited mouth opening, airway obstruction and difficult intubation. C-MAC-VS has no lumens so it's very easy to clean and it can accommodates a size ETT 6.0 and greater.
