Increasing access to simulation opportunities for emergent cricothyrotomy using a 3D model and positive pressure
Our CT training technique demonstrated non-inferiority to a conventional training mannequin with respect to success rate for learners. Furthermore, the time to ventilation was faster in the group trained with the novel model. Coupled with intrinsic economic and logistical advantages over conventional techniques, this model provides an effective means of reinforcing skill in a rare procedure.
