Name Time Method Total time to successful intubation. Intubation attempt is defined as commencing with placement of the device past the level of upper incisors (or upper lip if patient had no teeth) and similarly ending with removal of the device past the level of upper incisors (or upper lip if patient had no teeth) using end-tidal carbon dioxide (CO2) detected by capnography as confirmation of successful intubation.. Failure of the procedure is declared if intubation was not achieved within 120s, if more than three intubation attempts were required or if oxygen saturation dropped below 95%. [During intubation - From insertion of the allocated videolaryngoscope into the participants mouth until end-tidal carbon dioxide (CO2) detected by capnography.]
