Summary

Pneumaglide is a device designed to facilitate intubation. Patients who are undergoing a surgical procedure under general anesthesia and will require placement of endotracheal tube will be screened and upon fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be randomized to PneumaGlide group or non-PneumaGlide group. After induction of anesthesia PneumaGlide device will placed in the mouth of the Pneumaglide assigned subject. The time for intubation will be measured from the time that the laryngoscope is inserted into the mouth until the trachea is successfully intubated and compared between the groups. Oxygen saturation drop below 90% and also gastric secretion spillage will be compared between two groups as well.

Interventions

DEVICE

Pneumaglide

The device is designed to facilitate intubation and reduce the time to intubation. It works with traditional glidescope to make the process of intubation easier. In this study patients scheduled for surgery and intubation, will be randomized to two groups. The intervention group will be intubated with the help of the pneumaglide. Yet, the other group will receive standard intubation. We aim to evaluate the efficacy of the Pneumaglide to improve the ease of intubation in unskilled clinicians and skilled clinicians during difficult and routine intubations
