Identifying Cricothyroid Membrane With Ultrasound

Identifying Cricothyroid Membrane With Ultrasound

Recruiting
18 years and younger
All
Phase N/A

Overview

Cannot-intubate cannot-ventilate situations in healthy children are uncommon but are often associated with poor outcome. We studied the learning curves of inexperienced trainees for identifying cricothyroid membrane with ultrasound in pediatric patients. After watching an instructional video, 30 trainees performed 5 cricothyroid membrane identification on pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia. We analysed their learning curves relative to performance time and ultrasound anatomy of cricothyroid membrane and relative structures.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia

Exclusion Criteria:

  • previous history of tracheostomy
  • previous history of operation on neck

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.
