BackgroundBackground
Paediatric tracheal Paediatric tracheal intubation is a vital intubation is a vital and life saving skill and life saving skill in the emergent in the emergent settingsetting
BackgroundBackground
Tracheal intubation is a core skill in Tracheal intubation is a core skill in anaesthesia anaesthesia
Paediatric airway provides particular Paediatric airway provides particular challenges to both to acquisition and challenges to both to acquisition and teaching of this skillteaching of this skill

HypothesisHypothesis
We hypothesised that the familiar We hypothesised that the familiar design and intuitive technique of design and intuitive technique of video-laryngoscopy would result in a video-laryngoscopy would result in a shorter time to visualise the glottis shorter time to visualise the glottis and intubate the trachea, with a and intubate the trachea, with a higher rate of success for novices in higher rate of success for novices in the paediatric settingthe paediatric setting
