Summary

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

Hypothesis:

The modified I-gel jaw thrust insertion technique is easy to understand and practice than the standard I-gel insertion technique at the beginning of airway management training among the novice anesthesiologists.

  • Igel

Interventions

DEVICE

I-gel with standard insertion technique

Standard I-gel insertion technique (grasping I-gel from integral bite block site and cuff facing towards chin and pressing down the manikin chin. I-gel introduced in patient's mouth in a direction towards hard palate. Then I-gel slided downwards and backwards along hard palate with a continuous but gentle push until a definitive resistance is felt) Modified jaw thrust technique (grasping I-gel from integral bite block site and cuff facing towards chin and pressing down manikin chin. I-gel introduced in patient's mouth in a direction towards hard palate with gently advancing into oropharynx. Then after, I-gel left in oral cavity and both hands used to thrust jaw by lifting angle of mandible with little fingers and other fingers to stabilise jaw. And, at this point, both hand's thumbs used to apply balance force from I-gel stem head towards final placement position by looking at integral bite block mark at incisor teeth level)
