Three-Minute rule for safer intubation in obese women?
NCT ID NCT04808440
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 36 times
Summary
This study looked at how well a muscle relaxant called atracurium works for placing a breathing tube in 100 obese women undergoing gynecological surgery. Doctors waited exactly three minutes after giving the drug before attempting intubation. The goal was to see if this timing leads to good or excellent intubation conditions. The study is complete and helps guide anesthesia care for this specific group.
