Protocol summary

Study aim
Comparison of RAMP position with modified RAMP position in laryngoscopic view during intubation of morbid obese patients for bariatric surgery.
Design
This study is a one-way blind controlled clinical trial on 84 patients in which patients are placed in groups using the block randomization method using a table of random numbers and adapting to blocks.
Settings and conduct
This study is performed in Hazrat Rasool Akram Hospital in Tehran, so that patients with morbid obesity who undergo bariatric surgery are positioned on the bed in two modified RAMP and RAMP, and airway intubation is performed for them. Patients are unaware of being in study groups.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: greater than 35, No history of deformity in the head and neck, No lung disease, No history of drug use Exclusion criteria:History of heart disease, History of asthma, History of COPD
Intervention groups
In the first intervention group (RAMP), we provide for patients a soft pillow made of Surgical drapes and put it under the patient's head and shoulders in a supine position so that the patient's ear is in the direction of the sternum and in the modify RAMP group, a one-liter Normal Saline serum Prepare the and cover it completely with Underpads and place it the two shoulders of the patient and set the bed angle to 30 degrees.
Main outcome variables
Intubation time, need for support maneuver, amount of blood saturation at the end of Intubation

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
In this study, we use the block randomization method so that after selecting patients according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria by selecting numbers from the table of random numbers and adapting to the blocks, patients are divided into study groups.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
In this study, a person who is responsible for analyzing statistical data is not aware of the treatment process and study groups and the information is provided to that person in groups A and B. This helps the person's personal opinion not to affect the results. .
