Arms of the Study

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Experimental

Arm Label

Child ETI withoutchest compressions

Child ETI with chest compressions

Arm Description

Endotracheal intubation of pediatric mannikin during resuscitation without chest compressions.

Endotracheal intubation of 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.).

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Time to intubation
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.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Success of intubation
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.
VAS score
participants were asked which method they would prefer in a real-life resuscitation.
Cormack-Lehan scale
self reported Cormack-Lehan scale during intubation

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study was to compare the Pentax AWS, Intubrite and AirTraq to Miller laryngoscope during pediatric resuscitation with and without chest compressions.
Detailed Description
Endotracheal intubation (ETI) is a life-saving procedure performed daily in emergency medicine. The European Resuscitation Council (ERC) 2010 cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) guidelines suggest that intubators should be able to secure the airway without interrupting chest compression. However, ETI with uninterrupted chest compression in patients can be a very difficult skill to acquire.
