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

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.
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

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- 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
- Time for intervention [through study completion, an average of 10 minutes]
time for Exchange the Primary airway device
- Anaesthesia Experience [through study completion, an average of 10 minutes]
individual anaesthesia experience
- IDS [through study completion, an average of 10 minutes]
after the Scenario we calculate the Intubation difficult score (IDS)
