Tracheal intubation in an out-of-hospital setting is a frequent and potentially difficult procedure. The risk of adverse events increases dramatically with the number of attempts. The failure rate of the first intubation attempt ranges from 5 to 32% and the risk factors are unclear. In recent study, the prevalence of a failed first intubation attempt was 31.4% [95% CI = 30.2-32.6] among 1546 patients managed in an out-of-hospital setting. In this multicenter study, our center (N=462) had a rate of 36% of failure of the first attempt. Seven variables were independently associated with a failed first intubation attempt. Some of the associated factors can be improved (operator training and experience), but most cannot. Moreover some of them can not be anticipated in this context. A randomized control trial performed in an emergency department and a prospective, observational, pre-post study design showed that systematic use of a bougie during the first intubation attempt improved the success rate. Our objective is to measure the impact of a modification of our intubation modalities introducing the incitation of the use of the bougie on the first intubation attempt in the prehospital setting.
The aim of the study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of the operation of a prehospital teleconsultation system in the Emergency Medical Service.
