- Device: Airway management with a submerged model
- Registration Number
- NCT03848559
- Lead Sponsor
- Universitätsklinikum Köln
- Brief Summary
Trained anesthesiologist- or emergency physician-divers will perform an airway management in simulated microgravity on a submerged model.
- Detailed Description
Trained anesthesiologist- or emergency physician-divers participate in the study. Simulated microgravity during spaceflight is obtained by using a submerged model. Full-torso manikins is going to be used for performing airway management. Each diver attempted airway management with each device (laryngeal mask, laryngeal tube, orotracheal intubation with video-assisted laryngoscope. The time for airway protection will be measured as well as the success rate.
