About this study

Official title: Comparison of Volumes of Air Delivered Through a Frova Intubation Bougie by a Maximal Bimanual Compression Versus a Normal Bimanual Compression of an Adult Ambu® Bag

We will conduct this study to show that it is possible to deliver air through a Frova bougie and an Ambu® bag.

Read the detailed description

Participants will be invited to squeeze an Ambu® bag connected to a Frova bougie, and we will measure the volume of air delivered and peak pressure generated.

Being tested
Frova bougie
