Comparison of Efficiency Between I-gel Blind Intubation and I-gel Bronchoscopic Intubation During Resuscitation

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Heart Arrest
Interventions
Device: Conventional endotracheal tube
Device: Reinforced endotracheal tube
Registration Number
NCT02411422
Lead Sponsor
Hallym University Kangnam Sacred Heart Hospital
Brief Summary

The investigators will compare conventional intubation using Macintosh laryngoscope, blind endotracheal intubation using i-gel for conduit and bronchoscopic intubation using Ambu-aScope and i-gel. All situation assumed as cardiac arrest. i.e, someone give chest compressions continuously without interruption.

Moreover the investigators will compare the type of endotracheal tube. Reinforced tube has more soft tube tip, so the investigators think it is more acceptable for intubation using i-gel as conduit.
