Evaluation of skill of ventilation mask by icu residents of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences-1401

Abstract

MASK ventilation (MV) is an essential component of airway management and the delivery of general anesthesia. Successful MV provides anesthesia practitioners with a rescue technique during unsuccessful attempts at laryngoscopy and unanticipated difficult airway situations. The techniques studied included the one-hand C-E technique, the two-hand C-E technique, and the V-E technique. However, there is considerable evidence that a variety of health care professionals do not consistently provide adequate BVM ventilation(BVMV), delivering substandard ventilation rate or volume. Method and materials:in order to evaluate ability of clinical icu resident doctors in bag mask ventilation,residents in internal medicine, neurosurgery, general surgery and anesthesiology were included in this study. This study was in a type of descriptive analytical study and was a mannequin based research that was conducted in a skill laboratory of the faculty of medicine in Tabriz University of Medical Sciences Consent was taken from all participants for enrolling in the study. The exclusion criteria included participant’s dissatisfaction to participate. All attendants filled consensus form and the approval was obtained from training of medical students Ethical Committee of the university. Sample size was considered to be 100 participants One of emergencymedicineprofessors accompanied the participant who took the two hand BMV. He supervised over the appropriate position of the mask and BMV techniques. At the same time he was responsible to compress ambo for each technique He supervised over the appropriate position of the mask and BMVtechniques. At the same time he was responsible to compress ambo for each technique and each ambo was done in a second. In sum, each participant did 6 ventilations with bag-mask (each of the methods 2 times: two hand V-E,one hand C-E ,two hand C-E) Results: In our study, 59% of resident participants were female and the others were male.ability of female and male residents were equal (CI:95%) two hand C-E technique was well done by the all fields residents.
