ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying two different airway devices used during septoplasty, which is a surgery to correct a deviated septum in the nose. The researchers want to find out whether a video laryngeal mask airway (VLMA) or an endotracheal tube (ETT) is better at preventing blood contamination during surgery. They will also look at how well each device helps with breathing, the stability of patients' vital signs during the procedure, and how patients feel afterward, including any sore throat or hoarseness. The goal is to find the best option for patients undergoing this type of surgery.
To participate in this trial, you need to be an adult between 18 and 65 years old and classified as ASA I or II, meaning you are generally healthy or have mild health issues. Unfortunately, if you have certain conditions like a difficult airway, a high body mass index, or if you're pregnant, you won’t be eligible. Participants can expect to be part of a study that may help improve care for future patients undergoing nasal surgeries, and they will be closely monitored throughout the process for their comfort and safety. The trial is not yet recruiting participants, so there’s still time to think about whether this is something you’d like to consider.
