Pediatric Intubation During Resuscitation (PIDR)

October 27, 2014 updated by: Lukasz Szarpak, International Institute of Rescue Research and Education

A Comparison of Endotracheal Intubation Using the Shikani Optical Stylet or the Endoeye Flexible Intubation During Pediatric Resuscitation

The aim of the study was to compare time and success rates of four intubation devices in a cardiopulmonary scenario with and without chest compressions with a standardized pediatric manikin model.

Detailed Description

Emergency airway management during resuscitation is a critical skill in emergency medicine. According to the European Resuscitation Council (ERC) guidelines for resuscitation 2010 , endotracheal intubation (ETI) is considered the gold standard during resuscitation.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Intubation without chest compressions
Endotracheal intubation of pediatric mannikin during resuscitation without chest compressions.
Device: Shikani Optical Stylet
Optical intubation
Device: Endoeye Flexible Intubation (LF-V)
endoscopy intubation
Experimental: Intubation with uninterrupted chest compressions
Endotracheal intubation of pediatric mannikin during resuscitation with uninterrupted chest compressions. In order to simulate the difficulties associated with intubation during uninterrupted chest compressions, CPR was performed by using LUCAS-2 (Physio-Control, Redmond, WA, U.S.).
Device: Shikani Optical Stylet
Optical intubation
Device: Endoeye Flexible Intubation (LF-V)
endoscopy intubation

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time to intubation
Time Frame: 1 month
time from insertion of the blade to the first manual ventilation of the manikin´s lungs. If time of intubation is over than 60 seconds, attempt was recognized as failure.
1 month

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Success of intubation
Time Frame: 1 month
effectiveness of the first, second and third intubation attempts and overall effectiveness of intubation by participants using four intubation devices. If the examinee failed at all attempts, the case was excluded from the time calculations.
1 month
VAS score
Time Frame: 1 month
participants were asked which method they would prefer in a real-life resuscitation.
1 month
