First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether using a flexible bronchoscope along with a video laryngoscope helps doctors place a breathing tube on the first try during lung surgery. About 130 adults scheduled for thoracic surgery will be randomly assigned to one of two intubation methods. The goal is to see if the combined approach improves success rates and reduces complications.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
flexible bronchoscope
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a standard procedure that makes intubation faster and safer for patients undergoing lung surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 130 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The benefit may be small or not statistically significant.
