Does oxygen flow clear the view for intubation?
NCT ID NCT07575776
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether different flow rates of high-flow nasal oxygen change how well doctors can see the airway when placing a breathing tube. 150 adults having planned surgery will each be tested at three flow settings (0, 40, and 60 L/min). The goal is to find the best flow for a clear view, which could help make intubation safer.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help anesthesiologists choose the best oxygen flow to get a clearer view of the airway during intubation.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study, not a treatment trial. It only measures the view quality, not patient outcomes, so practical benefits are uncertain.
