Pediatric Intubation During CPR

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Cardiac Arrest
• Interventions: Device: ATMOS Scope; Device: COOPDECH; Device: AirTraq

• Registration Number: NCT02289677
• Lead Sponsor: International Institute of Rescue Research and Education

Brief Summary

We hypothesized that the video-laryngoscopes are beneficial for intubation of pediatric manikins while performing CPR. In the current study, we compared effectiveness of two video-laryngoscopes (the Coopdech video Laryngoscope portable VLp-100 and the Flexible Videoendoscope: ATMOS Scope) and optical-laryngoscope (the AirTraq) during resuscitation with uninterrupted chest compressions using an child manikin.
