“…This study confirms that non-experienced intubators can quickly learn new devices. The learning curve of intubation using videolaryngoscopes was described by Declerqc et al [ 24 ] This study demonstrates that DL needs prolonged learning, whereas videolaryngoscopes require less operator skill than DL to effectively and rapidly secure the airway.…”

Background: New devices are more available in the pre-hospital environment operational theaters and emergency departments. One is an intubrite laryngoscope (INT) with Dual LED lighting that combines ultraviolet and white LED. The study aimed to compare the efficacy of endotracheal intubation using INT and conventional laryngoscope performed by inexperienced paramedics (paramedics students) and paramedics with experience in advanced airways management in full and limited accessibility settings. Methods: It was an open, prospective, crossover manikin study. Sixty paramedics and paramedic students were recruited. Participants were divided into 2 equal groups depending on their experience (n = 30). Experienced participants were further randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 15). Inexperienced participants were also randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 15). The criterion of inexperience was 5 or fewer intubation by any laryngoscope. Inexperience participants were asked to perform tracheal intubation in standard pre-hospital settings (without limited access to manikin) (scenario A) and difficult pre-hospital settings (limited access to manikin - narrow space between benches) (scenario B). Experience participants were asked to intubate manikin in difficult pre-hospital settings. Results: In the normal pre-hospital environment, the success rate after the first attempt was 56,7% for conventional laryngoscope and 66,7% for intubrite. However, the overall effectiveness of tracheal intubation using both laryngoscopes in 3 attempts was 90% for both devices. The successful rate of first attempt intubation in a difficult environment by inexperienced was 73,3% for INT and 50% for conventional laryngoscope. Overall effectiveness was 83,3% and 86,7% respectively. The successful rate of first attempt intubation in the experienced group was 86,7% with INT compared to 60% with a conventional laryngoscope in difficult settings. Overall effectiveness was 96,7% for both devices. Conclusion: Intubrite provided better working conditions and make up for deficiencies in successful tracheal intubation by inexperienced participants in a normal and difficult environment. Tracheal intubation with intubrite was more effective in the experienced group. Tracheal intubation effectiveness with intubrite was also higher in the experienced group.

: Video laryngoscopes enhance laryngeal visibility and improve the chances of successful intubation, especially in difficult airway scenarios. Video laryngoscopes require development of a skill to perform a successful intubation. As with surgical endoscopes and laparoscopes, this device has a learning curve to achieve dexterity in hand-eye co-ordination necessary for intubation. In our study, we studied the learning curve of Truview video laryngoscope.: To evaluate intubation time and study the learning curve of Truview video laryngoscope in easy and difficult airway scenario in adult manikin. Compare ease of intubation with Truview video laryngoscope in both airway scenarios. : After approval of the Institutional ethics Committee, the study was conducted at the skill lab and simulation centre in four sessions. Each session was conducted at a time interval one-week apart. Using Truview video laryngoscope, thirty postgraduate students, were asked to intubate a manikin in easy and difficult airway scenarios. At the end of every session, the parameters pertaining to intubation were recorded. Primary outcome was the time taken for successful intubation and the secondary outcome of ease of intubation was noted. All thirty participants completed the study. : The time required for intubation decreased significantly for Session 1 from 46.77 ± 7.94 to 24.07 ± 5.85 (p<0.001*) in session 4 in the easy airway scenario. In the difficult airway scenario, time decreased from 36.07 ± 4.25 in session 1 to 19.77± 9.38(P<0.001*) in Session 4. Participants also rated the device with respect to ease of intubation significantly better in Session 4 for both easy (IQR- 1-1, p<0.001*) and difficult (IQR- 1-1.25, p<0.001*) airway scenarios. We noted significantly improved learning curve of Truview video laryngoscope in both easy and difficult airway scenarios in the period of our study.: We concluded that the Truview video laryngoscope provides faster intubation time and better ease in handling the device in different airway scenarios in the study period. The device has a quick learning curve and users can become adept in handling intubations, in both easy and difficult airways with a little practice. In the difficult airway, the Truview video laryngoscope achieves faster intubation.
