An interventional study of fiberoptic bronchoscope in General Anesthesia, sponsored by Seoul National University Hospital. Completed at 1 site in Korea, Republic of. Open to participants aged Up to 7 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2018-07-17.

Ambu AuraGain, I-gel, Air-Q intubating laryngeal airway are the most commonly used supraglottic airway. In children, they can be used as intubation conduits. However, there has been no guideline for optimal insertion depth of endotracheal tube through those supraglottic airway. In this study, the investigators will measure the distance from grille of those supraglottic airways to glottis using fiberoptic bronchoscope in children undergoing anesthesia. This distance allows us to predict an appropriate depth of endotracheal tube when it should be inserted through each supraglottic airway.
Seoul National University Hospital is the lead sponsor of 1,860 studies on the registry; 275 are open to participants now.
Of its 12 completed or terminated interventional studies of FDA-regulated products, 2 (17%) have results posted.

Exclusion Criteria:
Ambu AuraGain is inserted in children undergoing general anesthesia. The size of AuraGain is as follows: size 1 for children \<5 kg, size 1.5 for 5-10kg, size 2 for 10-20kg, size 2.5 for 20-30kg. Fiberoptic bronchoscope will be performed to measure the distance between the grill and vocal cord.
Procedure: fiberoptic bronchoscope
I-gel is inserted in children undergoing general anesthesia. The size of I-gel is as follows: size 1 for children weighing 2-5kg, size 1.5 for 5-12kg, size 2 for 10-25kg, size 2.5 for 25-35kg. Fiberoptic bronchoscope will be performed to measure the distance between the grill and vocal cord.
Procedure: fiberoptic bronchoscope
Air-Q ILA is inserted in children undergoing general anesthesia. The size of Air-Q ILA is as follows: size 1 for children between 4-7 kg, size 1.5 for 7-17kg, size 2 for 17-30kg, size 2.5 for 30-50kg. Fiberoptic bronchoscope will be performed to measure the distance between the grill and vocal cord.
Procedure: fiberoptic bronchoscope
Distance from grille (the end of shaft in supraglottic airway) to glottis is measured using FOB
Also known as: FOB
The distance from grille to glottis
The distance from grille to glottis is measured using fiberoptic bronchoscopy
Time frame: 30 seconds after each supraglottic airway insertion
FOB view
score 1: no visible glottis, score 2: visible glottis and anterior epiglottis, score 3: visible glottis and posterior epiglottis, and score 4: only glottis visible
Time frame: 30 seconds after each supraglottic airway insertion
Ventilation score
no air leak in airway pressure of 15 cmH2O / bilateral chest wall movement/ normal waveform of capnography
Time frame: 30 seconds after each supraglottic airway insertion
Plan to share: Undecided
