Spatial Orientation and Fiberoptic Intubation Skills in the Novice: A Randomized Controlled Trial

NCT02263300 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 46

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Does spatial orientation of a novice in relation to a mannequin (supine vs upright) impact on the development of fiberoptic intubation skills?

Is it necessary to teach both orientations or is the supine view transferable to the upright position?

Which method demonstrates longer skill retention?

The hypotheses: Both orientations must be practiced and the upright skill is harder to learn but is retained for longer.
