Video laryngoscopy may reduce stress during breathing tube insertion
NCT ID NCT07510542
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two methods of inserting a breathing tube (intubation) in 124 adults having planned surgery. One method uses a video camera to see the airway, the other uses a direct view. The goal is to see which method causes less stress on the body and takes less time. Participants are healthy adults aged 18-60 with no heart problems.
