Prehospital Endotracheal Intubation Success Rates for Critical Care Nurses Versus Paramedics
Critical care paramedics and nurses perform ETI with similar proficiency. In this analysis of 7,812 intubations, clinician licensure was not associated with FPS nor LPS after controlling for multiple common confounders. Further research evaluating training schemes especially in early years of experience is needed.
