The Effect of Head Tilting on the Passing of Tracheal Tube Through Nasopharynx During Nasotracheal Intubation

Seoul National University Hospital·interventional·Posted Dec 19, 2017·Updated Sep 17, 2018

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Neutral and Head tilting for Intubation;Difficult. Completed, enrolled 66 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The goal of this prospective randomized controlled study is to investigate the effect of head tilting on tracheal tube passing during nasotracheal intubation. The question which the investigators are trying to answer is: If patient's neck is extented on inserting tracheal tube via nostril, will the E-tube be more easily to pass through nasopharynx to oropharynx without trapping?

Interventions

Neutralprocedure

When inserting a tracheal tube to oral cavity via nostril before use of laryngoscope in nasotracheal intubation, clinicians advance the tube with patient' head and neck in neutral position.

Head tiltingprocedure

When inserting a tracheal tube to oral cavity via nostril before use of laryngoscope in nasotracheal intubation, clinicians advance the tube with patient' head in head-tilting position.
