Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the study is to prospectively assess the use of a modified tracheal balloon dilator that allows gas flow (oxygenation and ventilation) through the device while inflated during dilatation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The primary aim is to determine the incidence of, and time to, arterial desaturation (defined as peripheral plethysmography below 90%). Secondary aims include quantitative and qualitative (waveform) end-tidal capnography levels throughout the procedure, quantitative assessment of dilatation, and incidence of adverse events.
