Brief Summary

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

Using eye-tracking technology, the aim of this observational study is to compare the visual interests between attending physicians and residents watching a Cannot Intubate/Cannot Oxygenate (CICO) scripted and simulated scenario

Detailed Description

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

Attending physicians and residents, from the department of Anesthesiology at the Université de Montréal were recruited on a voluntary basis. A 13-minute video based on a suggested CICO algorithm from the Difficult Airway Society to manage unanticipated difficult intubation in adults (3) was produced at the University of Montreal Simulation Centre using high-fidelity settings. The scenario was about a patient, with a cervical collar, in the post-anesthesia care unit. Throughout the video, the patient presents increasing respiratory distress worsening to respiratory failure. The anesthesiologist fails to ventilate, intubate and insert a laryngeal mask leading to a cricothyroidotomy. All participants were looking at a screen on which the scenario was broadcast. The screen was equipped with TobiiEyeX®, an eye-tracking system that automatically aggregates gaze data.
