Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary outcome is the incidence of successful intubation at the first attempt without physiological instability. <br>‘Successful intubation’ is defined as the completion of the intubation attempt with correct positioning of the endotracheal tube confirmed by detection of expired carbon dioxide (CO2) on a colorimetric CO2 detector. <br>Beginning of ‘first attempt’ is defined as the first insertion of the laryngoscope beyond the infant’s lips. <br>End of 'first attempt' is defined as the removal of the laryngoscope from the baby’s mouth.<br>‘Physiological instability’ is defined as any desaturation to peripheral oxygen saturation >20% from baseline value or any bradycardia to a heart rate <100 beats per minute. ‘Baseline’ SpO2 will be recorded at the time at which the face mask is removed to commence intubation.<br>The difference in saturations is taken from the beginning of the intubation attempt, to the lowest saturations during the intubation attempt.
