NCT00956592
Brief Summary:
This study aims to evaluate the utility of a video assisted device for intubation (placement of a breathing tube) during surgery. This study specifically aims to compare a video assisted intubation with the CMAC laryngoscope to conventional devices in the setting of intubations predicted to be difficult.
Detailed Description:
Patients will be specifically screened for predictors by history and physical exam of potential airway difficulty. The role of video laryngoscopy in airways predicted to be difficult is poorly defined. This study aims to recognize if video laryngoscopy is more useful than conventional laryngoscopy as a first attempt for those with anticipated difficulty.
