A Comparison of the Videolaryngoscope and Macintosh Laryngoscope for NIM-EMG Endotracheal Tube Placement: Prospective, Double Blind, Randomized Study

Status: Completed
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Device
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

Laryngeal nerve monitoring is performed to prevent intraoperative nerve damage in thyroidectomy operations. NIM-EMG intubation tube is used while monitoring the recurrent laryngeal nerve. Care should be taken when placing this tube. Ensure that the electrodes on the tube are in contact with the vocal cords. Both the macintosh laryngoscope and the videolaryngoscope can be used when inserting the NIM-EMG tube. The aim of our study is to compare these two intubation methods.
