Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Mcgrath Mac videolaryngoscope
Participants perform three intubation attempts using Mcgrath Mac videolaryngoscope in the manikin with the normal airway setting. Then the participants perform three intubation attempts using the manikin with difficult airway setting.
Other: Mcgrath Mac videolaryngoscope
Participants perform three intubation attempts using Mcgrath Mac videolaryngoscope in the manikin with the normal airway and difficult airway settings.
Experimental: C-MAC videolaryngoscope
Participants perform three intubation attempts using C-MAC videolaryngoscope in the manikin with the normal airway setting. Then the participants perform three intubation attempts using the manikin with difficult airway setting.
Other: C-MAC videolaryngoscope
Participants perform three intubation attempts using C-MAC videolaryngoscope in the manikin with the normal airway and difficult airway settings.
Active Comparator: Macintosh laryngoscope
Participants perform three intubation attempts using macintosh laryngoscope in the manikin with the normal airway setting. Then the participants perform three intubation attempts using the manikin with difficult airway setting.
Other: macintosh laryngoscope
Participants perform three intubation attempts using macintosh laryngoscope in the manikin with the normal airway and difficult airway settings.
