Direct Versus Video Laryngoscopy in Patients With Acromegaly (ACRO-VL)
Determination of the Appropriate Intubation Method in Patients With Acromegaly: Comparison of Direct Laryngoscopy and Video Laryngoscopy
Acromegaly is associated with craniofacial skeletal changes and upper airway soft tissue hypertrophy, which may increase the risk of difficult laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation. This prospective observational study aims to evaluate airway and intubation characteristics in patients with acromegaly undergoing surgery under general anesthesia and to compare direct laryngoscopy and video laryngoscopy findings.
Adult patients with acromegaly and patients with nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas scheduled for surgery under general anesthesia will be prospectively enrolled between July 1, 2026, and August 31, 2026. Preoperative airway assessment parameters, hormonal data including growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor-1 levels, Mallampati score, modified Cormack-Lehane grade, intubation-related variables, and peri-intubation complications will be recorded.

Részletes leírás
This prospective observational study will be conducted at Basaksehir Cam and Sakura City Hospital between July 1, 2026, and August 31, 2026. The study population will include adult patients with acromegaly and adult patients with nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas who are scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia requiring endotracheal intubation.
Eligible patients will undergo routine preoperative airway assessment. Recorded variables will include age, sex, height, body weight, body mass index, history of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, comorbid diseases, previous operations, presence of hypopituitarism, preoperative growth hormone level, preoperative insulin-like growth factor-1 level, IGF-1 index, Mallampati score, and other airway-related clinical parameters.
During airway management, laryngoscopic findings obtained with direct laryngoscopy and video laryngoscopy will be recorded. The modified Cormack-Lehane classification will be used to assess glottic visualization. Intubation-related variables, including first-attempt success, time to successful intubation, number of intubation attempts, need for adjunct airway maneuvers or devices, oxygen desaturation, and airway trauma, will also be documented.
The primary objective of the study is to compare laryngoscopic findings and intubation characteristics in patients with acromegaly and to evaluate whether video laryngoscopy provides advantages over direct laryngoscopy in this patient group. The secondary objective is to identify clinical, hormonal, and airway-related predictors of difficult laryngoscopy or difficult intubation in patients with acromegaly.

Modified Cormack-Lehane Grade With Direct and Video Laryngoscopy
Időkeret: During tracheal intubation procedure
|
The modified Cormack-Lehane grade obtained during direct laryngoscopy and video laryngoscopy will be recorded and compared to evaluate glottic visualization and the degree of laryngoscopic difficulty.
|
During tracheal intubation procedure

Mallampati Classification Score
Időkeret: Preoperative airway assessment before induction of anesthesia
|
The preoperative Mallampati Classification score will be recorded as part of the routine airway assessment and evaluated for its association with difficult laryngoscopy or difficult intubation.
The Mallampati Classification ranges from Class I to Class IV, with a minimum value of Class I and a maximum value of Class IV.
Higher scores indicate poorer visualization of the oropharyngeal structures and a worse airway assessment, reflecting a greater likelihood of difficult laryngoscopy or difficult intubation.
|
Preoperative airway assessment before induction of anesthesia
|
|
Time to Successful Intubation
Időkeret: During tracheal intubation procedure
|
Time to successful intubation will be defined as the time, measured in seconds, from insertion of the laryngoscope into the oral cavity to confirmation of endotracheal tube placement by capnography.
|
During tracheal intubation procedure
|
|
Number of Intubation Attempts
Időkeret: During tracheal intubation procedure
|
The total number of laryngoscopy attempts required for successful endotracheal intubation will be recorded.
An intubation attempt will be defined as each insertion of the laryngoscope into the oral cavity with the intention of endotracheal tube placement.
|

|
|
Need for Adjunct Airway Maneuvers or Devices
Időkeret: From induction of anesthesia until confirmation of successful endotracheal tube placement by capnography during the airway management procedure
|
The need for adjunct airway maneuvers or devices will be recorded as a binary outcome, defined as whether any additional airway maneuver or device is required to achieve successful endotracheal intubation.
Adjuncts may include external laryngeal manipulation, stylet, bougie, change of laryngoscope, supraglottic airway device, or fiberoptic bronchoscopy.
|
From induction of anesthesia until confirmation of successful endotracheal tube placement by capnography during the airway management procedure

Peri-Intubation Oxygen Desaturation
Időkeret: From anesthesia induction to 5 minutes after intubation

Peri-intubation oxygen desaturation will be defined as a decrease in peripheral oxygen saturation below 90% during airway management.
|
From anesthesia induction to 5 minutes after intubation
|
|
Airway Trauma
Időkeret: Immediately after intubation
|
Airway trauma will be assessed by the presence of mucosal bleeding, dental trauma, lip injury, or other visible airway-related injury after intubation.
