Brief Summary

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

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.

Detailed Description

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

This is a randomized, prospective, manikin simulation study. Emergency medicine specialists will be participated in the study. Participants will be randomly assigned into 6 groups with a 1:1:1:1:1:1 allocation following simple randomization procedures by a program generating online random numbers. 13 participants will be recruited to the study.

Operators who will intubate the manikin will use following methods: (1) conventional personal protective equipment (PPE) with placing the manikin in the supine position. (2) aerosol box as an adjunct to PPE with placing the manikin in the supine position. (3) transparent sheet as an adjunct to PPE with placing the manikin in the supine position. (4) conventional personal protective equipment (PPE) with placing the manikin in the 30 degree the head of the bed elevated position. (5) aerosol box as an adjunct to PPE with placing the manikin in the 30 degree the head of the bed elevated position. (6) transparent sheet as an adjunct to PPE with placing the manikin in the 30 degree the head of the bed elevated position.

aerosol box

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.

Intervention Type DEVICE

transparent sheet

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
