What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This study will test two video laryngoscopes that help doctors place a breathing tube during surgery. A breathing tube is needed for people who receive general anesthesia so they can breathe safely. Video laryngoscopes use a small camera to give a better view of the throat and vocal cords, which may help the tube go in on the first try. The purpose of this research is to find out if a Colombian device called Laringocel® works as well as the widely used international device C-MAC D-Blade® (Karl Storz). If Laringocel® performs similarly, it could be a more affordable option for hospitals with limited resources. 252 adults (126 in each group) who need elective surgery at Alma Máter Hospital de Antioquia (Medellín, Colombia) will take part. Each participant will be randomly assigned, like flipping a coin, to have their breathing tube placed with either Laringocel® or C-MAC D-Blade®. Only t
