Endpoints
Primary and secondary outcome measures (English text)
Primary endpoints 2
- Safety: A composite of one or more intubation or anaesthesia-related adverse events: Early (< 20 min): Cardiac arrest, anaphylaxis, pulmonary aspiration, serious traumatic airway injury, desaturation, major hemodynamic event, new onset bradycardia, sustained new arrhythmia Late (< 24 h): Death, brain damage including stroke, acute myocardial infarction, ICU admission, re-intubation, postoperative respiratory failure, intraoperative awareness, pneumonia, dental injury, sore throat, or hoarsenes
- Efficacy: Prevalence of failed first-pass intubation. Defined as failed tracheal tube delivery after the first attempt to introduce the video laryngoscope into the patient’s mouth.
