February 2, 2017 updated by: Zehra Ipek ARSLAN, Kocaeli University

Intubation on a Pediatric Manikin by Emergency Medical Staff: a Comparison of Direct Laryngoscopy, Airtraq and Glidescope in Normal, Tongue Edema and Face-to-face Intubation Models

After Local Human Research Ethics Committee approval, emergency medical staff enrolled in this study. After watching a video about the intubation using Airtraq, Glidescope or direct laryngoscopy, they attempted to intubate a pediatric manikin in three different airway models.

Detailed Description

After Local Human Research Ethics Committee approval, emergency medical staff enrolled in this study. After watching a video about the intubation using Airtraq , Glidescope or direct laryngoscopy, they attempted to intubate a pediatric manikin in three different airway models; normal airway, tongue edema and an entrapped model by face-to-face approach. Intubation attempts, insertion and intubation times, success rates, Cormack-Lehane grades and the need for maneuvers of these devices were recorded.
