Not Applicable

Not yet recruiting

• Conditions: Obesity, Morbid; Intubation; Difficult or Failed
• Interventions: Procedure: Endotracheal tube alone; Procedure: Endotracheal tube with stylet

• Registration Number: NCT06405672
• Lead Sponsor: Antalya Training and Research Hospital

Brief Summary

The investigators aimed to compare the effects of using enotracheal tube with stylet versus endotracheal tube alone in morbidly obese patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy.

Detailed Description

Different intubation techniques have been used in morbidly obese patients undergoing general anesthesia. No study comparing the use of endotracheal tube with or without stylet was found in literature. Thus, the investigators aimed to compare the effects of using enotracheal tube with stylet versus endotracheal tube alone in morbidly obese patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy.
