Comparison of Video Laryngoscopy and Direct Laryngoscopy in a Simulated Environment for Respiratory Therapy Students

VL demonstrated slightly higher first-pass success rates and greater user satisfaction, supporting its value as an educational tool in respiratory therapy training. However, longer intubation times underscore the importance of structured and repeated VL training. These findings emphasize the potential of incorporating VL into training curricula and support further clinical studies to assess its real-world efficacy.
