In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This is a prospective, randomized, single-center, three-arm, open-label, low-risk medical device clinical study conducted at the Department of Anesthesiology and Reanimation, Trakya University Medical Faculty. The study aims to compare the efficacy, safety, and clinical usability of three laryngoscopy methods for double-lumen endotracheal tube (DLT) intubation in patients undergoing elective thoracic surgery requiring one-lung ventilation: (i) C-MAC hyperangulated (D-blade) videolaryngoscopy, (ii) C-MAC Macintosh blade videolaryngoscopy, and (iii) direct Macintosh laryngoscopy. The primary outcome is the total time to successful DLT placement (in seconds), defined as the interval from the end of mask ventilation to fiberoptic bronchoscopic confirmation of correct tube position. Secondary outcomes include glottic visualization quality (POGO score and Cormack-Lehane grade), intubation di
