Effectiveness of Pediatric Intubation (PETI)

November 12, 2014 updated by: Lukasz Szarpak, International Institute of Rescue Research and Education

Comparison of the Venner(TM) A.P. Advance(TM) With the Macintosh Laryngoscope for Emergency Intubation in a Standardized Airway Manikin With and Without Chest Compressions by Nurses. A Randomized, Controlled Crossover Trial.

We hypothesized that the Venner videolaryngoscope (A.P. Advance™) is beneficial for intubation of pediatric manikins while performing CPR. In the current study, we compared effectiveness of the Venner videolaryngoscope (A.P. Advance™) and MIL laryngoscopes in child resuscitation with and without CC.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Intubation without chest compressions
Endotracheal intubation of pediatric mannikin during resuscitation without chest compressions.
Video-laryngoscopy
Other Names:
  • The Venner A.P. Advance Video Laryngoscope
Direct-Laryngoscopy
Other Names:
  • Miller Laryngoscope
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.).
