Abstract
This study presented an innovative method in order to estimate training required for skilful and successful intubations during ED cardiac arrests. Video reviews were taken from a system that routinely records ED staff during cardiac arrests and as these recordings are already part of everyday clinical practice, it is likely that there is minimal Hawthorne effect. Cardiac arrest research often reiterates the fact that the basics should be done well. It is commendable that intubations by the residents in this observational study resulted in a modest mean delay in chest compressions of only 8.6 seconds for the intubation attempt. However, nearly a third of intubation attempts were unsuccessful at the first attempt, and there were 11 oesophageal intubations (albeit they were all recognised) in the 93 patients that were included.
