Summary

The Endotracheal intubation (ETI) of a neonate is a procedure that usually attracts a large number of observers. The fear of being judged by others could cause an increased level of stress, especially on the junior trainees. Little research has focused on the effect of the audience on the level of stress and therefore, on the success rate of complicated procedures in neonatal intensive care.

Hypothesis:Investigators hypothesize that time to successful intubation (in seconds) will be longer with the presence of observers.
