Laryngoscopy for Neonatal and Infant Airway Management wIth Supplemental Oxygen at Different Flow Rates (OPTIMISE-2): a Multi-center, Non-inferiority, Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial

Summary

This study aims to investigate the optimal oxygen flow rate needed during tracheal intubation with the C-MAC video laryngoscope (Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, Germany) using Miller-blade or Macintosh-blade size No. 0 or No. 1 in the operating room or intensive care unit. The investigators hypothesize that the difference between low-flow and high-flow supplemental oxygen is negligible.

Interventions

• Device
  Low-flow nasal supplemental oxygen with a conventional nasal cannula during tracheal intubation with the C-MAC video laryngoscope

  0.2 L/kg/min FiO2 1.0 low-flow nasal supplemental oxygen with a conventional nasal cannula during tracheal intubation with the C-MAC video laryngoscope (Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, Germany) with Miller-blade or Macintosh-blade size No. 0 or No. 1.

• Device
  High-flow nasal supplemental oxygen (Fisher & Paykel, Auckland, New Zealand) during tracheal intubation with the C-MAC video laryngoscope

  2 L/kg/min FiO2 1.0 high-flow nasal supplemental oxygen (Fisher \& Paykel, Auckland, New Zealand) during tracheal intubation with the C-MAC video laryngoscope (Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, Germany) with Miller-blade or Macintosh-blade size No. 0 or No. 1.
