Summary

The investigators will study to what extent insufflation of oxygen via the suction channel of a flexible bronchoscope can help with making access from the mouth to the trachea easier when there is blood or secretions in the way. We provide the oxygen-flow from the circle-system of an anaesthesia-machine and in this way we can limit the pressure to 30 and 40 cm H2O which are relatively safe pressure-levels. The endoscopy is performed on a plastic manikin and artificial sputum mixed with artificial blood is used. The procedure will be performed by 64 anaesthetists that will be randomised to use either oxygen-insufflation or not. The setup is cross-randomised so that each participant will perform two attempts, one with insufflation and one without. The procedures will be video-taped and evaluated by a blinded observer regarding a) success/failure of advancing the scope to the mid trachea under vision, b) the duration of the procedure. Additionally, subjective scores regarding the benefit of using insufflation will be obtained
