What this study is about

This study compares the time required to complete intubation in obese patients (Body Mass Index 40 or greater) when using either the GlideScope or Airway Scope video laryngoscope device to help place the endotracheal tube.

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.
