Intubation training by video-laryngoscope among novice residents:digital video versus intubation model simulator / 基础医学与临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the effectiveness of training with a digital video disc ( DVD)-based instruction ver-sus intubation model simulator in placement of endotracheal tube by video -laryngoscope .Methods Sixty patients un-dergoing elective gynecology surgeries and twenty residents of Dept .of anesthesiology were randomized to place a en-dotracheal tube by video-laryngoscope .Results Compared with intubation model simulator , intubation time [ (68 ± 14)s vs (69 ±7)s], score of performance (8.24 ±0.64 vs 8.31 ±0.58), failure rate (3 times/11 vs 1time/9 resi-dents), and instruction rate (5times/11 vs 4times/9 residents) were no statistic difference .Conclusions Digital video disc ( DVD)-based instruction is an alternative way to intubation model simulator in training .
