The aim of this study was to compare C-MAC videolaryngoscopy with direct laryngoscopy for intubation in simulated cervical spine immobilization conditions.
The study was designed as a prospective randomized crossover manikin trial. 70 paramedics with <5years of medical experience participated in the study. The paramedics attempted to intubate manikins in 3 airway scenarios: normal airway without cervical immobilization (Scenario A); manual inline cervical immobilization (Scenario B); cervical immobilization using cervical extraction collar (Scenario C).
Scenario A: Nearly all participants performed successful intubations with both MAC and C-MAC on the first attempt (95.7% MAC vs. 100% C-MAC), with similar intubation times (16.5s MAC vs. 18s C-MAC). Scenario B: The results with C-MAC were significantly better than those with MAC (p<0.05) for the time of intubation (23 s MAC vs. 19 s C-MAC), success of the first intubation attempt (88.6% MAC vs. 100% C-MAC), Cormack-Lehane grade, POGO score, severity of dental compression, device difficulty score, and preferred airway device. Scenario C: The results with C-MAC were significantly better than those with MAC (p<0.05) for all the analysed variables: success of the first attempt (51.4% MAC vs. 100% C-MAC), overall success rate, intubation time (27 s MAC vs. 20.5 s C-MAC), Cormack-Lehane grade, POGO score, dental compression, device difficulty score and the preferred airway device.
The C-MAC videolaryngoscope is an excellent alternative to the MAC laryngoscope for intubating manikins with cervical spine immobilization.
本研究旨在比较在模拟颈椎固定条件下,C-MAC视频喉镜与直接喉镜用于气管插管的效果。
本研究设计为一项前瞻性随机交叉人体模型试验。70名具有<5年医疗经验的护理人员参与了该研究。护理人员在3种气道场景下尝试对人体模型进行气管插管:无颈椎固定的正常气道(场景A);手动直线颈椎固定(场景B);使用颈椎提取颈圈进行颈椎固定(场景C)。
场景A:几乎所有参与者在首次尝试时使用MAC和C-MAC都成功进行了气管插管(MAC为95.7%,C-MAC为100%),插管时间相似(MAC为16.5秒,C-MAC为18秒)。场景B:在插管时间(MAC为23秒,C-MAC为19秒)、首次插管尝试成功率(MAC为88.6%,C-MAC为100%)、Cormack-Lehane分级、POGO评分、牙齿压迫严重程度、设备难度评分以及首选气道设备方面,C-MAC的结果明显优于MAC(p<0.05)。场景C:在所有分析变量方面,C-MAC的结果明显优于MAC(p<0.05):首次尝试成功率(MAC为51.4%,C-MAC为100%)、总体成功率、插管时间(MAC为27秒,C-MAC为20.5秒)、Cormack-Lehane分级、POGO评分、牙齿压迫、设备难度评分以及首选气道设备。
对于颈椎固定的人体模型进行气管插管,C-MAC视频喉镜是MAC喉镜的极佳替代品。
