Contamination of the Handles, Quality of the Laryngoscopy
Conditions
Brief summary
Reduce the risk of nosocomial transmission of germs related to the reusability of the laryngoscope handle. The alternative is to replace it with a disposable device, provided that it is as effective as the reference strategy at a reasonable cost.
Interventions
DEVICEThe two groups SU and R are defined by the device with which intubation is performed after a first laryngoscopy done with the other device.
Group SU (Single Use or Laryngobloc ®): the first laryngoscopy is performed with the R and the second laryngoscopy and the intubation is performed with the Laryngobloc ®. Group R (Reusable handle+ disposable metal blade): the first laryngoscopy is performed with the Laryngobloc ® and the second laryngoscopy and the intubation is performed with the R.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The quality of laryngoscopy | 1 year | The quality of laryngoscopy. The quality of the visibility of the glottis, is assessed by the Cormack and Lehane grade. A rank of 1 or 2 will be considered a success for the analysis of results. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation microbiological and evaluation of intubation | 1 year | Evaluation microbiological (bacteria, fungi) and identification of bacteria with smears of the handle of laryngoscopes, the Laryngobloc ® and the reusable battery. Evaluation of intubation: IDS score, satisfaction of the anesthesiologist, intubation time, quality of light offered by the device. |
