Abstract:ObjectiveUnlike randomized controlled trials, practical real‐world studies can offer important information about implementation of prehospital interventions, particularly in community settings where there may be reluctance to adopt new practices. We present the results of a natural experiment that was driven by mandated COVID‐19 pandemic‐driven shift from endotracheal intubation (ETI) to the i‐gel® supraglottic airway (SGA) as a primary advanced airway management device in the prehospital setting to reduce eme… Show more
