Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Control the airways by endotracheal intubation is an important part of treatment for a trauma casualty. The use of the Laryngeal Mask Airway for fast control of the airway is known for many years. The aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of the Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway to achieve a definitive airway by unskilled practitioners.

The hypothesis is that definitive airway obtaining with Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway will be more success and faster compared to the standard way of direct laryngoscope.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Control the airways and respiration are an important part of treatment for a trauma casualty. Tracheal intubation an action that allows the insertion of a tube through the vocal cords and fixation by the balloon inflation is a definitive airway. The use of the Laryngeal Mask Airway for fast control of the airway is known for many years. The Laryngeal Mask Airway and others similar devices are known as Supraglottic Airway Devices and are inserted blind in the oropharynx and allow a fast oxygenation and ventilation of the patients.The aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of the Laryngeal Mask Airway to achieve a definitive airway by unskilled practitioners in anesthetized patients with the head in neutral position (trauma model)

The hypothesis is that definitive airway obtaining with Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway will be more success and faster compared to the standard way of direct laryngoscope. If the hypothesis is proven, this research will be very important implications for the management of the airway describing pre-hospital and in particular military scenarios.
