Study Summary

This trial is testing a new device to help deliver oxygen more effectively than a normal nasal tube.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults aged 18 or older who are scheduled for an elective Transesophageal Echocardiography (TEE) procedure and can give informed consent. It's not suitable for those with uncontrolled acid reflux or anatomical airway blockages, or any condition that might interfere with the study.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study is testing if the McMurray Enhanced Airway (MEA), a special flexible airway device, provides better oxygenation during TEE than the standard nasal cannula, which is a tube placed in the nostrils.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Potential side effects may include discomfort from using MEA, possible sore throat after use, and rare risks associated with airway manipulation such as minor bleeding or injury.
