The DA-VITION study

Details and patient eligibility

About

This study aims to train an AI for video-directed endotracheal intubation (VITION) to recognise the anatomical structures of the upper airway during video-directed endotracheal intubations.

Full description

Study design

The VITION study protocol describes the design of a prospective, observational study. Inclusion will commence in 2023 at the anesthesia and intensive care departments in the Capital Region of Denmark.

Participants

Patients across all ages are eligible for inclusion if they are undergoing video-directed oral or nasal endotracheal intubation.

Exclusion criteria

Patients are excluded if they adhere to one of the exclusion criteria:

• Upper airway malformations (e.g., laryngomalacia, vocal cord paralysis, and subglottic stenosis17,18).
• Failed attempt by video laryngoscopy due to malfunctioning equipment.
• Missing or corrupted video recording.
• Informed consent is not obtained from the participants or participants' parents / legal guardians.

Interventions and comparisons

This prospective, observational study will have no interventions or comparisons.

Primary objective

The primary objective is to characterize anatomical landmarks and performances of intubations in a large and diverse pool of clinicians and patients.

Sex: All

Ages: Under 5 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion and exclusion criteria
