NCT04412226

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the impact of using the aerosol box and transparent sheet as an adjunct to conventional personal protective equipment on endotracheal intubation of COVID-19 patients. The effect of the head of the bed elevation will also be evaluated during the mentioned simulated scenarios.

    Comparison of the first pass success rates for each method that were mentioned in the 'Detailed Description' of the study.

    2 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Time to endotracheal intubation

    2 minutes

  • Difficulty level of accessing the equipment

Interventions

The aerosol box is a barrier that protects the staff against the aerosols during the aerosol generating procedures like endotracheal intubation. It is a transparent cube that covers the patient's head during the endotracheal intubation. Operator can intubate the patient through the two holes for arms.

The transparent sheet is a barrier that protects the staff against the aerosols during the aerosol generating procedures like endotracheal intubation. It is a transparent cover that covers the patient's head and body during the endotracheal intubation. Operator can intubate the patient through the space under the cover
