New treatment option for Airway Complication of Anesthesia
Official title Structural Modification In Supraglottic Airway Device
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04498598
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The proposed A/Z modification of a supraglottic airway (SGA) incorporates an opening in the SGA body that enables access to the endotracheal tube (ETT) through the body of the SGA without the need of using an exchange catheter, thus enabling an ETT to move in the body of the SGA and convert a supraglottic to endotracheal ventilation. In its original form an adaptor made from same material currently used in the endotracheal tubes can make ventilation through the proposed airway device possible in exactly the same manner of a conventional SGA currently used.
