About this study

Official title: Combined Use of Point-of-View (POV) Video and Mental Practice Training Versus Standard Demonstration for Neonatal LMA Insertion by Novice Healthcare Professionals: A Prospective Randomized Simulation Study

This prospective, randomized, single-blind simulation study aims to evaluate and compare the educational efficacy of a hybrid instructional modality-combining point-of-view (POV) video training and structured mental practice (MP)-against standard instructor-led live demonstration for neonatal laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion training among novice healthcare professionals. Learning neonatal airway management skills presents unique educational and cognitive challenges, especially for non-physician providers who are frequently required to perform these high-stakes interventions during the Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) curricula.

A total of 52 eligible healthcare professionals (including physicians, midwives, nurses, paramedics, and emergency medical technicians) with no prior neonatal LMA insertion experience will be prospectively enrolled and randomly allocated into two equal parallel groups (n=26 per group). Group A (Control) will receive a standard, step-by-step 5-minute live instructor demonstration on a high-fidelity term neonatal simulator. Group B (Intervention) will view a 3-minute standardized POV video captured from a first-person perspective via a head-mounted action camera worn by an expert instructor, immediately followed by a 1-minute structured mental rehearsal, with no live demonstration provided.

Following the respective educational interventions, all participants will individually perform the neonatal LMA insertion on the simulator in a separate room. A trained evaluator, who remains strictly blinded to the group assignments, will record the performance outcomes. The primary outcome measures are the objective total OSCE score (evaluated via a 22-item standardized checklist) and the physical procedural completion time in seconds. Secondary outcomes include first-attempt success rates, critical error rates, instances of excessive force application, airway trauma or procedural failure, and subjective cognitive workload dimensions assessed via the NASA Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) questionnaire. The findings will provide insights into scalable, cost-effective, and cognitively optimized learning models for integration into neonatal resuscitation training frameworks.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Standard Instructor DemonstrationOther

    A 5-minute, step-by-step live instructor demonstration of neonatal LMA insertion on a simulator.

  • POV Video and Mental PracticeOther

    A 3-minute first-person point-of-view video combined with 1 minute of structured mental rehearsal.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group A - Standard DemonstrationActive comparatorParticipants receive a standardized, step-by-step 5-minute live instructor demonstration of neonatal laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion on a high-fidelity term neonatal simulator, adhering to current Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) guidelines.
Receives: Other: Standard Instructor Demonstration
Group B - POV Video + Mental PracticeExperimentalParticipants view a 3-minute standardized point-of-view (POV) video captured by a head-mounted action camera worn by an experienced instructor, displaying the LMA insertion from a first-person perspective with expert narration. Immediately after, participants perform a 1-minute structured mental rehearsal.
Receives: Other: POV Video and Mental Practice

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) Score

    A 22-item standardized checklist specifically developed based on the Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) guidelines to evaluate the technical proficiency of neonatal laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion. Each step is scored, and higher total scores indicate superior clinical performance.

    Measured: Immediately after the educational intervention (Day 1).

  2. Procedural Completion Time

    The total physical time measured in seconds from the moment the participant picks up the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) device until the successful placement and initial ventilation on the high-fidelity neonatal simulator.

    Measured: Immediately after the educational intervention (Day 1).

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Subjective Workload (NASA-TLX Score)

    The NASA Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) questionnaire will be used to evaluate the multidimensional subjective workload experienced by participants across 6 subscales: mental demand, physical demand, temporal demand, performance, effort, and frustration. Total score ranges from 0 to 100, where higher scores reflect higher cognitive and physical workload.

    Measured: Immediately after the clinical performance assessment (Day 1).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Standard Instructor Demonstration and POV Video and Mental Practice in people with Neonatal Resuscitation and Clinical Competence, run by Kahramanmaras Sutcu Imam University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jul 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) Score (time frame: Immediately after the educational intervention (Day 1).). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Jul 2026.
