Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

A randomized controlled study to evaluate different Techniques and Approachs for the Exchange of a tracheal tube or supraglottic airway device in a Simulator

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Prone Position
  • Device: Laryngeal tube
  • Device: Endotracheal tube Leackage
N/A

Detailed Description

Exchanging a tracheal tube (ETT) in the high-risk difficult airway patient carries the risk of hypoxemia and the potential of a lost airway. Maintaining continuous airway access during the exchange by incorporating an airway exchange catheter (AEC) or similar device may reliably lessen exchange risk, especially in the known or suspected difficult airway patient, by providing a conduit to facilitate ETT passage into the trachea. We evaluated some approven / etablished techniques in a Simulator based study design.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Prone Position

Evaluation of Techniques for tracheal tube Exchange in prone position

Device: Prone Position
In a randomized order we evaluate techniques for securing the airway in paralyzed patients in prone position

Device: Laryngeal tube
In a randomized order we evaluate techniques for securing the airway in patients with a failed laryngeal tube

Device: Endotracheal tube Leackage
In a randomized order we evaluate techniques for securing the airway in paralyzed patients with a endotracheal tube and a cuff leackage

Experimental: Laryngeal tube

Evaluation of Techniques for tracheal tube Exchange in patients with laryngeal tube (LT)

Device: Prone Position
In a randomized order we evaluate techniques for securing the airway in paralyzed patients in prone position

Device: Laryngeal tube
In a randomized order we evaluate techniques for securing the airway in patients with a failed laryngeal tube

Device: Endotracheal tube Leackage
In a randomized order we evaluate techniques for securing the airway in paralyzed patients with a endotracheal tube and a cuff leackage

Experimental: Endotracheal tube Leackage

Evaluation of Techniques for tracheal tube Exchange in critical care patients with a endotracheal tube and a high leackage

Device: Prone Position
In a randomized order we evaluate techniques for securing the airway in paralyzed patients in prone position

Device: Laryngeal tube
In a randomized order we evaluate techniques for securing the airway in patients with a failed laryngeal tube

Device: Endotracheal tube Leackage
In a randomized order we evaluate techniques for securing the airway in paralyzed patients with a endotracheal tube and a cuff leackage

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Evaluation of Strategies for Securing the Airway [through study completion, an average of 10 minutes]

    Evaluation of Strategies for securing the Airway in patients in the OR and Critical Care Medicine. Participants are confronted with three airway scenarios and perform in a Simulator different airway management strategies.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Time for intervention [through study completion, an average of 10 minutes]

    time for Exchange the Primary airway device

  2. Anaesthesia Experience [through study completion, an average of 10 minutes]

    individual anaesthesia experience

  3. IDS [through study completion, an average of 10 minutes]

    after the Scenario we calculate the Intubation difficult score (IDS)
