Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • physiological parameter

    study correctness diagnose of pneumothorax by listening to it with a stethoscope and palpation method. The sounds will be issued by the software of manikin. Correct interpretation of the physiological parameters will be recorded in the survey questionnaire

    intraoperative

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Procedure of Pneumothorax decompression

    intraoperative

  • duration of the procedure

    intraoperative

  • Ease-of-use assessed on a visual analog scale

    1 day

Study Arms (2)

With Tension pneumothorax

EXPERIMENTAL

evaluation of the patient with the existing tension pneumothorax during a simulated CPR - breathing

Device: ThoraQuik atraumatic set for pneumothorax decompression

Without Tension pneumothorax

EXPERIMENTAL

evaluation of the patient without the existing tension pneumothorax during a simulated CPR - breathing

Device: ThoraQuik atraumatic set for pneumothorax decompression

Interventions

pneumothorax decompression in case it is found in accordance with the actually recommendations
