: Rigid Video Stylet Can Provide More Successful Intubation Than Conventional Lightwand Intubation in Patients With Cervical Spine Operation : A Prospective Randomized Study

• Status: Unknown
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 168 (estimated)
• Sponsor: Seoul National University Hospital · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 20 Years – 80 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

Lightwand is a useful alternative device for intubation but scooping movement can induce damage and microbleeding of oral mucosa, postoperative hoarseness,sore throat. Optiscope is rigid video stylet which has camera on distal tip of device. In many previous studies, rigid video stylet has proven advantages compared with other intubating devices.

Conditions

• Hoarseness
• Intubation
• Sorethroat

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Conventional lightwand intubation	Conventional lightwand intubation technique will perform during intubation
DEVICE	Rigid video stylet	Rigid video stylet will inserted through endotracheal tube before induction. After induction with propofol and remifentanil using TIVA infusion pump, rocuronium 0.6mg/kg were used to facilitate intubation. After 2minutes, board-certificated anesthesiologist perform intubation using Optiscope.
