New study tests if video scopes make baby intubation safer
NCT ID NCT06757543
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether using a video laryngoscope (a tool with a camera) helps doctors place a breathing tube in newborns more safely than the standard direct laryngoscope. About 840 babies across multiple hospitals will be included. The goal is to see if video laryngoscopy leads to more successful first attempts without drops in oxygen or heart rate.
