Simulated Comparison of Standard Versus Rotational Laryngeal Mask Airway Insertion in Novice Anaesthesiologists. — LMA  

Training Group, Sensitivity Clinical Trial

Official title: Simulation Based Comparison Of Standard Versus Rotational Laryngeal Mask Airway Insertion Technique In Novice Anesthesiologists. A Randomised Control Crossover Trial

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective of study was to compare insertion ease by standard and rotational LMA insertion technique on basis of LMA insertion attempts and insertion time duration. The secondary objective of study was to analyse impact of prior information for airway device, insertion techniques, general or specific work experience in airway management with ease of both insertion techniques. And, tertiary objective of study was to analyse the trainee's preference insertion technique on basis of learning method and practical adaptability.

Hypothesis:

The rotational LMA insertion technique is easy to understand and practice than the standard LMA insertion technique at the beginning of airway management training among the novice anesthesiologists.

Clinical Trial Description

• LMA insertion attempts are the number of LMA insertion attempts with each study's insertion technique. The 10 insertion attempts will be performed with each insertion technique by trainees.

• LMA insertion time duration is the time taken to complete LMA insertion; from the holding of device till the confirmation of chest movement (artificial lungs inflation in manikin).

• The correlation of previous information for airway device, insertion techniques, general or specific work experience in airway management with the ease of both study's insertion techniques will be asked by participant's through the questionnaire at the start of study.

• The trainees will be asked at the end of study for preferred insertion method at novice level on the basis of learning method and practical conduct (user friendly) ;
