Brief Summary:
Videolaryngoscopy can lead to superior airway conditions and to the possible higher success compared to standard direct laryngoscopy. Patient will be randomized to the interventional group (videolaryngoscopy) and control group (direct laryngoscopy). The first attempt success rate, time to first end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) wave, overall success rate, incidence of aspiration, bradycardia, desaturation a overall complications will be monitored.
Detailed Description:
Videolaryngoscopy is specialized equipment for airway management, where a camera located at the tip of the laryngoscope blade can visualize also structures that can´t be seen on direct laryngoscopy, co the operator can obtain superior view of aditus laryngis during intubation. Currently videolaryngoscopy is not routinely used for intubation and it is reserved for patients with difficult airway. The aim of the trial is to compare the elective use of videolaryngoscopy versus direct laryngoscopy for elective airway management (tracheal intubation). Patients after informed consent approval will be randomized to the interventional group (videolaryngoscopy) and control group (laryngoscopy). The randomization will be managed by the Institute of Biostatistics and Analyses by the Faculty of medicine, Masaryk university. The primary aim will be the first intubation attempt success rate, the secondary aims will be time to successful intubation (time to first ETCO2 wave), overall success rate, number of intubation attempts, incidence of aspiration, desaturation and incidence of overall complications in all operators, in trainees, residents (5-10 years of practice), consultants (10-15 years of clinical practice) and consultants with over 15 years of clinical practice.
