No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this prospective randomized study is to compare the effect of operator experience on the ability to use fiberoptic-guided intubation in children less than two years old, with and without the use of an air-Q as a conduit. The question the investigators are trying to answer is: Does the operator experience make a significant difference in the time for successful fiberoptic guided tracheal intubation with and without the use of an air-Q intubating laryngeal airway?

Conditions

  • Fiberoptic Intubation in Children

Interventions

DEVICE

air-Q, followed by fiberoptic intubation

DEVICE

Free-hand Fiberoptic Intubation

Fiberoptic tracheal intubation will be performed without use of the air-Q and timed. Laryngeal grade of view will also be assessed
