Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
ETI without chest compressions	Macintosh laryngoscope	Endotracheal intubation of child mannikin during resuscitation without chest compressions.
ETI with chest compressions	ETView VivaSight SL	endotracheal intubation (ETI) during child mannikin resuscitation with uninterrupted chest compressions. In order to simulate the difficulties associated with intubation during uninterrupted chest compressions, CPR was performed by using LUCAS-2 (Physio-Control, Redmond, WA, U.S.).

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Success of intubation	1 day	effectiveness of the first, second and third intubation attempts and overall effectiveness of intubation by participants using four intubation devices. If the examinee failed at all attempts, the case was excluded from the time calculations.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Time to intubation	1 day	time from insertion of the blade to the first manual ventilation of the manikin´s lungs. If time of intubation is over than 60 seconds, attempt was recognized as failure.
