- Abstract
Prehospital endotracheal intubation (ETI) is a complex skill to maintain proficiency. Several airway adjuncts are available for prehospital providers. A recent alternative is the King Laryngeal Tube (LT) approved for use by the FDA in 2003. The aim of this study was to determine if the King-LT offers improved placement success and times over the Combitube (ETC) and endotracheal tube (ETT) in a simulated difficult airway.
