C-MAC Video-stylet for Double- Lumen Tracheal Intubation
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
C-MAC Video Stylet secures the airway. It is a completely new type of video endoscope, it combines the advantages of both rigid and flexible intubation endoscopes. Video allows everyone involved in the intubation to visualize the anatomy simultaneously which facilitates communication and teamwork.

Detailed Description
It can be connected easily to the same C- MAC monitor and Pocket Monitor without requiring any additional light source and camera. Video allows everyone involved in the intubation to visualize the anatomy simultaneously which facilitates communication and teamwork. The device has no lumens so it's very easy to clean. Basically if you can get a tube between the cheek and teeth you can intubate the patient.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: C-MAC-VS group C-MAC-VS will be used to facilitate intubation |
Device: C-MAC video-stylet
Patients will be randomly assigned two group 40 patients each, C-MAC-VS group (VS group) (Karl Storz GmbHand Co.KG, Germany), and control group (C group). This will be done using a closed envelope technique using a computer-generated block randomization method.

Placebo Comparator: control group direct laryngoscopy using Macintosh laryngoscope will be done for DLT insertion. |
Device: Macintosh laryngoscope
Patients will be randomly assigned two group 40 patients each, C-MAC-VS group (VS group) (Karl Storz GmbHand Co.KG, Germany), and control group (C group). This will be done using a closed envelope technique using a computer-generated block randomization method.
