Comparison of Different Tools Inserted Nasal Endotracheal Tube

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Intubation, Nasotracheal Intubation
• Interventions: Device: Macintosh Laryngoscope; Device: Pentax Airway scope; Device: Glidescope

• Registration Number: NCT02448277
• Lead Sponsor: Kaohsiung Medical University Chung-Ho Memorial Hospital

Brief Summary

Nasotracheal intubation (NTI) is usually required in patients undergoing maxillofacial surgery. Though video-scopes have been demonstrated to well perform in oral endotracheal intubation, limited information presents in NTI. The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of video-scopes in NTI and compared with the traditional direct laryngoscope.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Macintosh Laryngoscope	Macintosh Laryngoscope	experimental Macintosh Laryngoscope group: laryngoscope is used to assist for nasotracheal intubation.
Pentax Airway scope	Pentax Airway scope	experimental Pentax Airway scope group:Pentax Airway scope is used to assist for nasotracheal intubation.
Glidescope	Glidescope	experimental Glidescope group:Glidescope is used to assist nasotracheal tube into trachea

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
number of the patients with successful nasotracheal intubation and scoring difficult intubation scale	half an hour	Nasotracheal intubation assisted by a video-stylet may be performed in patients following induction of anesthesia (fentanyl 2 micro-gram/kg, thiamylal 5 mg/kg, cis-atracurium 0.2 mg/kg and propofol 1 mg/kg)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
time to intubate	10 minutes	time of Intubating the nasotracheal tube (NT) from selected nostril to trachea is continuously calculated but separately into two parts. part one: from termination of mask ventilation and mask removed from face, to the NT tip on the nasopharynx. part two: advancing NT from nasopharynx, through vocal cord into trachea, to present of 3 end tidal carbon dioxide waveforms.
