简要总结
Endotracheal intubation may be needed in critically ill patients in the prehospital setting, where difficult conditions may be encountered. The patient may be lying on the ground, thus complicating direct laryngoscopy as the operator's visual axis cannot be properly aligned with the patient's oral-pharyngeal-tracheal axis. The posture sitting cross-legged ("Lotus" position) at the head of the patient may allow an easier alignment of the visual axes due to a lower operator's head position and more stability. We compared the impact of the "Lotus" position with free positioning of the operator for direct laryngoscopy on intubation first pass success rate among novice operators.

结局指标
主要结局
First Pass Success rate
时间窗: Periprocedural
In percentage, defined as achieving successful ETI on the initial attempt. An ETI attempt was counted since the laryngoscope blade was inserted at the dental arch, regardless of whether tracheal tube placement was attempted or not. ETI was considered successful when adequate ventilation was confirmed by chest elevation. The number of intubation attempts were limited to three, with a time limit of 60 seconds allowed per attempt.
