| Evaluate the safe and effective use of the 3D videolaryngoscope developed by the engineering school of the Universidade Federal Fluminense in patients undergoing elective surgical procedures. It is expected that such device may be used in the orotracheal intubation procedures of COVID-19 patients admitted to Hospital Universitário Antônio Pedro. The variables studied will be: 1) number of intubation attempts; 2) ease of the Federal University of Rio de Jane in intubation procedures orotracheal examination of COVID-19 patients admitted to Hospital Universitário Antônio Pedro.The variables studied will be: 1. number of intubation attempts; 2. ease of visualization of the glottis by the Cormack-Lehane scale; 3. Possible damage to the patients. All the evaluations will be registered on individual sheets. The data recorded in the form will be compared and statistically calculated. For the sample calculation, we used an alpha of 0.05, beta of 0.2 and a standard deviation of 0.7, thus, 30 patients per group would have 80% of testing power to find a difference of one point on the Cormack-Lehane scale between the group with higher and lower variability. Thus, the sample size includes 60 patients, with 30 patients per group. The Shapiro-Wilk normality test will be performed to see if the number of intubation attempts and the assessment of the modified Cormack-Lehane scale have normal distribution. If so,If so, these variables will be expressed as mean and standard deviation and will be compared between groups using the student t-test. Otherwise, they will be presented with median and interquartile range and the comparison will be by the Mann-Whitney test. The categorical data referring to possible damage will be evaluated descriptively and expressed as frequency and percentage. The significance level used will be 0.05. The data will be analyzed using the SPSS Statistics 20- IBM program. | — |
