Brief summary: This study aims to obtain learning curve data of residents for fiberoptic-guided tracheal intubation through supraglottic airway device for pediatric difficult airway manikin.

Detailed description: Residents under anesthesiology training will undergo a simulation practice to a pediatric airway manikin, after a single demonstration by an expert for fiberoptic-guided tracheal intubation through supraglottic airway device. The participants will do the same practice 20 times to the same manikin.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Residents under anesthesiology training with experience of more than 30 times of supraglottic airway device insertion and manipulation of fiberoptic bronchoscope

Exclusion Criteria:

* Prior experience of fiberoptic-guided tracheal intubation through supraglottic airway device
* Prior experience of training for fiberoptic-guided tracheal intubation through supraglottic airway device

Primary outcomes:
measure: Elapsed time to succeed endotracheal intubation for each training period
timeFrame: From start of each training period to success of endotracheal intubation, not to exceed 10 minutes
Secondary outcomes:
measure: Elapsed time to successful insertion of supraglottic airway device and ventilation of the manikin for each training period
timeFrame: From start of each training period to success of ventilation, not to exceed 10 minutes
measure: Elapsed time to identification of vocal cords via fiberoptic bronchoscope for each training period
timeFrame: From start of each training period to identification of vocal cords, not to exceed 10 minutes
measure: Elapsed time to introduction of fiberoptic bronchoscope into the trachea for each training period
timeFrame: From start of each training period to introduction of fiberoptic bronchoscope into the trachea, not to exceed 10 minutes
measure: Success rate of endotracheal intubation for each training period
timeFrame: From start of each training period to success of endotracheal intubation, not to exceed 10 minutes
measure: Number of trials
timeFrame: From start of each training period to success of endotracheal intubation, not to exceed 10 minutes
