New tulip airway device tested for safer breathing support in surgery

NCT ID NCT07204223

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study compares the Tulip airway, a newer device, with the standard Guedel airway in 30 adults who are expected to have trouble with mask ventilation after anesthesia. Participants have risk factors like older age, beard, missing teeth, or obesity. The goal is to see which device provides better breathing support, measured by the amount of air moved with each breath.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Tulip airway device and Guedel airway device
What this could lead to
If the Tulip airway works better, it could make breathing support safer and easier for patients who are harder to ventilate during surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The devices are compared in a controlled setting, and real-world performance could differ.
