#intubation has multiple steps: "(1) initiating the procedure and positioning the patient, (2) inserting the direct #laryngoscopy blade, (3) achieving the optimal laryngeal view, (4) inserting the #endotracheal tube, (5) verifying tube placement, and (6) securing the endotracheal tube." They are all important but I see the most opportunity to improve (4). https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35451970

There is excellent, sophisticated work being done, and opportunities to take it further.
This paper beautifully demonstrating a rigorous approach to validation of a #simulation based #evaluation tool. Would love to see this expanded to model #endotracheal tube #pitch, #roll and #yaw. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36598824/
