Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The participants can choose either the "String of pearls" or Thyroid-Airline-Cricoid-Airline (TACA) for the ultrasonographic method to be used .
The silicone model of the neck is distorted with with the larynx deviated to one of the sides to simulate a patient with neck pathology.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The participants can choose either the "String of pearls" or Thyroid-Airline-Cricoid-Airline (TACA) for the ultrasonographic method to be used .
The silicone model of the neck is distorted with with the larynx deviated to one of the sides to simulate a patient with neck pathology.
The test persons are randomized to use other palpation or ultrasonography. All attempts are video-taped.

Study Design
Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.
RANDOMIZED
PARALLEL
The participants are thus randomised to use either "palpation" or to use "ultrasonography" to DIAGNOSE the position of the cricothyroid membrane
DIAGNOSTIC
NONE
Study Groups
