Summary

This study hypothesizes that a novel reversal V-E ventilation technique will retain its high efficiency as that of standard V-E technique and will be easier to use.

Conditions

  • Intubation

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Standard V-E ventilation technique

For the two-handed standard V-E technique, the facemask is first placed over the bridge of the nose and mouth and then held in place by performing at two-handed jaw thrust maneuver with the index and second finger of each hand and maintaining mask contact with the patient's face by using both thumbs with mouth open. A head-tilt is performed by applying a caudal force on the mandible and mask.

PROCEDURE

Reversal V-E ventilation technique

While using reversal V-E technique, the anesthesia provider stands 180 degrees opposite from the head of the bed. Thenar eminence and thumbs secure the mask around the nose while the remaining fingers pull the mandible anteriorly while keeping the mouth open.
