Abstract

Background: Emergency is a critical condition which requires accuracy and speed of actions. Intubation is one of the most frequently performed actions in an emergency department. The success of intubation has a significant influence on the success of the emergency department. A number of factors affect the success of intubation, including the technique of mastery of intubation. Laryngoscope is an important supporting instrument for intubation, which therefore requires expertise in its use. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of a laryngoscope equipped with an endoscope camera. Methods: This study used a post-test only control group design as the experimental design. A total of 30 subjects acted as operators in the trial on intubation mannequins using a direct laryngoscope compared to using a laryngoscope equipped with an endoscope camera. Successful intubation was achieved when the insertion of an endotracheal tube right into the airway resulted in a chest expansion within a maximum of 120 seconds. The significance of the differences in the time and ease of use of video laryngoscopy was analyzed using SPSS version 24.0. Results: A stratified statistical analysis was carried out, starting with the Shapiro Wilk test to determine the normality of data distribution. The test indicated an abnormal distribution, thereby allowing the use of Wilcoxon test to determine the significance of the intubation time. No significant time difference was found in the use of laryngoscope versus laryngoscope equipped with an endoscope camera (p = 0.811). However, in the analysis using the Fisher Exact Test (p = 0.00) for the ease of use of laryngoscope equipped with an endoscope camera, significant results were obtained. Conclusion : The use of video laryngoscopy is not significant in terms of insertion time, but the ease of use analysis shows significant results.
