Two heads better than one for breathing tube insertion?
NCT ID NCT06727513
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether having two doctors work together to place a breathing tube using a special video camera (GlideScope) works as well as one doctor doing it alone. About 388 adults having planned surgery took part. The goal was to see if the two-person method is just as successful on the first try, which could help in tricky cases.
