About this study
A study was formulated to test the hypothesis that comprehensive training in Suction- Assisted Laryngoscopy and Airway Decontamination techniques reduces mannequin intubation times for Anaesthesia trainees.
Read the detailed description
To assess the clinical impact of in Suction- Assisted Laryngoscopy and Airway Decontamination (SALAD) training among 37 anaesthesia trainees. Intubation mannequin will be used to assess intubation times for contaminated airways pre and post SALAD training.
- Conditions
- Contaminated Airway
- Being tested
- Training on Suction Assisted Laryngoscopy and Airway Decontamination, No Training on Suction Assisted Laryngoscopy and Airway Decontamination Provided
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Training on Suction Assisted Laryngoscopy and Airway DecontaminationProcedure or surgery
Education on Suction Assisted Laryngoscopy and Airway Decontamination, via 30 minute teaching session, followed by practical demonstration of techniques.
No Training on Suction Assisted Laryngoscopy and Airway Decontamination ProvidedProcedure or surgery
No Training on Suction Assisted Laryngoscopy and Airway Decontamination provided to trainees
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Pre SALAD education group | Active comparator | Each trainee was asked to intubate a mannequin with a contaminated airway Receives: Procedure: No Training on Suction Assisted Laryngoscopy and Airway Decontamination Provided |
| Post SALAD education group | Experimental | Each trainee was asked to intubate a mannequin with a contaminated airway after receiving SALAD training Receives: Procedure: Training on Suction Assisted Laryngoscopy and Airway Decontamination |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Time to intubation as preformed on a mannequin .
Aim to investigate whether specific airway training on contaminated airways reduced intubation time in anaesthesia trainees.
Measured: 1 month
