Comparing Airtraq for intubation in obese and non-obese men

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial investigates the effectiveness of the Airtraq video laryngoscope for intubation in men with morbid obesity compared to non-obese men. Participants will be divided into two groups based on their body mass index, and the primary focus will be on measuring the time taken for intubation. Additional data on insertion time, perioperative hemodynamic variables, and postoperative complications will also be collected. The study aims to address the challenges of intubating morbidly obese men, a group that has not been extensively studied with this technology.
