Comparision of Direct Laryngoscopy and Video Laryngoscopy to Learn Successful Tracheal Intubation by Novices in Anaesthesiology

Comparision of direct laryngoscopy and video laryngoscopy to learn successful tracheal intubation by novices in anaesthesiology

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Video laryngoscopy has been recommended as an alternative during difficult conventional direct laryngoscopy using the Macintosh blade. However, successful visualisation of the larynx and tracheal intubation using some of the indirect laryngoscopes or video laryngoscopy requires hand-eye coordination. To best of our knowledge in the current literature there are no data how is the best educative way to learn successful tracheal intubation by novices in anaesthesiology.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Videolaryngoscopy (McGrath Macintosh)
First pass success rate using the videolaryngoscopy
In a randomised order we evaluate the first pass success rate of the tracheal tube into the trachea.
