Intubation Assist Clinical Study

The Intubation Assist Clinical Study is an observational study of adult patients scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia to assess the user interface, assess transthoracic impedance by the ventilation volume and assess transthoracic impedance. Monitoring will begin at the time the patient is pre-oxygenated in preparation for endotracheal intubation and will continue until 30 minutes after intubation is achieved.

Treatment and study plan

Intubation Assist Dashboard

Device

The ZOLL X Series Intubation Assist Dashboard feature guides the operator through a three-step auscultation process to verify the proper placement of an endotracheal tube.

Primary outcomes

Assessment of the user interface

Time frame: Assessment will be made after using Intubation Assist approximately 30 minutes after successful intubation

Secondary outcomes

Assessment of transthoracic impedance

Time frame: Impedance measurements will be collected during intubation and will not exceed 30 minutes from the start of intubation
