Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to find out whether the BESDATA BD-DF videolaryngoscope works as well as the McGRATH™ MAC videolaryngoscope for placing a breathing tube in infants during surgery. The study will also compare the costs associated with using each device.

The main questions this study aims to answer are:

Is the BESDATA BD-DF videolaryngoscope as effective as the McGRATH™ MAC videolaryngoscope for successful placement of a breathing tube on the first attempt in infants?

Are there differences between the two devices in terms of procedure time, number of attempts, airway-related complications, and overall costs?

Researchers will compare infants who are intubated using the BESDATA BD-DF videolaryngoscope with infants who are intubated using the McGRATH™ MAC videolaryngoscope to see whether the two devices perform similarly and whether one is more cost-effective than the other.

Participants will:

Be randomly assigned to have a breathing tube placed using one of the two videolaryngoscopes;

Receive standard general anesthesia for an elective surgical procedure;

Have information collected during and after the procedure to assess safety, effectiveness, and costs.
