Comparison of the VividTrac® Videolaryngoscope to Direct Laryngoscopy in Adults Under Manual Inline Stabilization

October 10, 2016 updated by: Mathew Malkin, Loma Linda University
This is a prospective randomized clinical study to be performed in adult patients ages 18 and older who are undergoing surgical procedures requiring endotracheal intubation. Adult patients will be randomized to either the VideoTrac® laryngoscope or direct laryngoscopy and the time to intubation will be compared and recorded. Patients in both treatment arms will receive manual inline stabilization. The study hypothesis is that the time to endotracheal intubation will be decreased in the VividTrac® video laryngoscope group when compared to direct laryngoscopy.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: VividTrac video laryngoscope
VividTrac® Videolaryngoscope, A device for endotracheal intubation
Procedure: Manual Inline Stabilization
Manual immobilization of Patient's neck with intention to minimize movement from baseline position
Device: VividTrac®
Active Comparator: Direct laryngoscopy
Direct laryngoscopy, A device for endotracheal intubation
Procedure: Manual Inline Stabilization
Manual immobilization of Patient's neck with intention to minimize movement from baseline position
Device: laryngoscopy
Placement of endotracheal tube. If successful intubation does not occur after the first attempt at laryngoscopy, airway equipment used in further attempts will be selected at the discretion of the attending anesthesiologist.
