Researchers watch videos to improve child intubation
NCT ID NCT06881576
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is observing how doctors use a video classification scale (VCI) when placing breathing tubes in children during scheduled surgeries. Researchers will compare ratings from the person doing the intubation and an outside observer. The goal is to gather information that may help predict difficult intubations in the future.
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 lead to better tools for predicting and managing difficult intubations in children.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It will not directly improve patient outcomes and results may not apply outside Spain.
