THE EFFECTS OF DIRECT AND INDIRECT LARYNGOSCOPY ON CORMACK-LEHANE AND POGO SCORES
An observational study of Being a 5th Year Student at the Faculty of Medicine and No Previous Laryngoscopy Experience, run by Zonguldak Bulent Ecevit University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).
Trial summary
Direct laryngoscopy (DL) is a conventional and highly difficult method that is used in endotracheal intubation (ETI) training. Today, the usage of video-laryngoscopes (VLs) to teach airway management to inexperienced healthcare personnel is a prevalent practice. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: THE EFFECTS OF DIRECT AND INDIRECT LARYNGOSCOPY ON CORMACK-LEHANE AND POGO SCORES IN THE LARYNGOSCOPY TRAINING OF MEDICAL STUDENTS: A SIMULATION STUDY
Direct laryngoscopy (DL) is a conventional and highly difficult method that is used in endotracheal intubation (ETI) training. Today, the usage of video-laryngoscopes (VLs) to teach airway management to inexperienced healthcare personnel is a prevalent practice. In ETI training, it is recommended to train students on simulators before allowing them direct access to patients.
- Being tested
- Cormack-Lehane (C&L), POGO score
- Keywords
- Cormack-Lehane, percentage of glottic opening (POGO) score, medical students., manikin study
