    Audiovisual training improved emergency cricothyroidotomy (surgical airway access) speed and success. The Nutrake system demonstrated superior performance in simulated emergency procedures for doctors.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Emergency Medicine
    • Surgical Procedures

    Background:

    • Emergency cricothyroidotomy is a critical skill for doctors.
    • Evaluating commercially available emergency cricothyroidotomy kits is essential for effective training.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the impact of audiovisual training on emergency cricothyroidotomy.
    • To compare the performance of two commercial cricothyroidotomy systems (Nutrake and Gentofte).

    Main Methods:

    • Doctors participated in a simulated emergency cricothyroidotomy on autopsy material.
    • Half of the participants received audiovisual training prior to the procedure.
    • Performance was evaluated based on speed, success rate, and confidence.

    Main Results:

    • Audiovisual training significantly enhanced procedure speed, success rate, and confidence.
    • Both the Nutrake and Gentofte systems supported positive pressure ventilation.
    • The Nutrake system was associated with a higher success rate and faster execution.

    Conclusions:

    • Audiovisual training is beneficial for emergency cricothyroidotomy skills.
    • The Nutrake system may be preferable for emergency cricothyroidotomy due to faster and more successful outcomes.
