Trial Outcomes & Findings for Clinical Evaluation of the Storz CMAC Laryngoscope (NCT NCT00956592)

NCT ID: NCT00956592

Last Updated: 2018-04-05

Results Overview

Success was measured by confirmed tracheal tube placement with one attempt. Any removal of the laryngoscope blade constituted a failure

Recruitment status

COMPLETED

Study phase

NA

Target enrollment

300 participants

Primary outcome timeframe

During each intubation in a 14 month period

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: During each intubation in a 14 month period

Population: 4 patients of the 300 were excluded because the randomization was not followed due to unavailability of equipment or provider preference to remove patient from study

Success was measured by confirmed tracheal tube placement with one attempt. Any removal of the laryngoscope blade constituted a failure
