Summary

The goal of this study is to analyze the impact of color-coded labeling and cognitive visual aids of a novel airway trolley on the performance of participants in a simulated unexpected difficult airway scenario. All participants will complete the same scenario, randomized to either the novel or the existing airway trolley. The main questions aimed to be answered are:

1. how long does it take to solve the scenario (=establish sufficient oxygenation via emergency front of neck access) with the novel vs the existing airway trolley?
2. how many deviations from the algorithm "unexpected difficult airway" are documented for each trolley (novel vs existing)?
3. are there differences in the provider experience between both trolleys

Conditions

  • Airway Morbidity
  • Team Efficacy
  • Intubation; Difficult or Failed
  • Human Factors

Interventions

OTHER

Scenario "unexpected difficult airway"

Participants are asked to solve a scenario "unexpected difficult airway" using a manikin in accordance with current guidelines. The scenario aims for participants to try 3 different techniques in securing the airway before performing emergency front of neck access.
