- Conditions
- VideolaryngoscopyAirway Management
- Registration Number
- NCT03571295
- Lead Sponsor
- Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz
- Brief Summary
The investigators intended to evaluate first success rate and learning curve of trainee anesthetists performing direct and videolaryngoscopy in pediatric airway management.
- Detailed Description
After obtaining written informed consent of 10 trainee anesthetists with non less than 24 months and not exceeding 60 months residency, use of the King Vision aBlade videolaryngoscope was demonstrated by presenting a 2 min instruction video.
