Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study was to compare the Venner a.p. advance video laryngoscope to Miller laryngoscope during resuscitation with and without chest compressions.

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.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	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.	1 day	No
Secondary	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.	1 day	No
Secondary	POGO score	self-reported percentage of glottis opening (POGO) score	1 day	No
Secondary	VAS score	participants were asked which method they would prefer in a real-life resuscitation.	1 day	No
Secondary	Cormack-Lehan scale	self reported Cormack-Lehan scale during intubation	1 day	No
