Intubation During Resuscitation

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The aim of the study was to compare time and success rates of four intubation devices ( in a cardiopulmonary scenario with uninterrupted chest compressions with a standardized manikin model. The investigators hypothesized that fiberoscope laryngoscopes may improve success rates.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Devices using in study: The Bonfils Intubation Fibrescope (BONFILS)(KARL STORZ Endovision, Inc., Charlton, MA, USA), The Video Rigid Flexing Laryngoscope (RIFL)( AI Medical Devices, Inc., Williamston, MI, USA), The C-MAC® S Video Laryngoscope Blade Mac#3(C-MAC®S) (KARL STORZ Endovision, Inc., Charlton, MA, USA) The Macintosh Laryngoscope Blade no. 3 (MAC) (LifeLine Medical, Inc., Brooksville, FL, USA).

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Time to successful intubation | The devices to be compared include (1) The Bonfils Intubation Fibrescope , (2) the Video Rigid Flexing Laryngoscope, (3) the C-MAC® S Video Laryngoscope, (4) the Macintosh Laryngoscope. Successful intubation will be measured in the seconds from insertion of an intubation device to the first manual ventilation of the mannequin's lungs. | Subjects complete study in 1 day | 
| Success rate of ETI | The devices to be compared include (1) The Bonfils Intubation Fibrescope , (2) the Video Rigid Flexing Laryngoscope, (3) the C-MAC® S Video Laryngoscope, (4) the Macintosh Laryngoscope.
