There is one clinical trial.
This study is for patients who will be having surgery and will have a breathing tube placed during intubation. The purpose of the research is to study the time it takes to use a barrier box for placement of a breathing tube. A barrier box is a clear box that sits over the head and shoulders of a patient as a breathing tube is placed. The box is used to protect the healthcare provider's exposure to coronavirus in patients who have COVID-19. The study will not include patients who test positive for COVID-19 or who are sick with COVID-19 symptoms. The researchers want to learn how long it takes to use the barrier box before it is used routinely in COVID-19 patients.
Description: Number of seconds to intubate (from loss of twitches confirmed with a peripheral nerve stimulator to confirmation of end tidal carbon dioxide.
Measure: Time to intubate Time: up to 10 minutesDescription: Number of attempts at intubation
Measure: Attempts at intubation Time: up to 10 minutesDescription: Need for bag mask ventilation (yes or no) during induction, defined as the time taken from propofol bolus to loss of twitches measured with a peripheral nerve stimulator.
Measure: Need for bag mask ventilation Time: up to 10 minutesDescription: Lowest peripheral capillary oxygen saturation during induction, defined as the time taken from propofol bolus to loss of twitches measured with a peripheral nerve stimulator.
