Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Success Rate	During intubation time, intubation attempts allows maximum 3 times, within 90 sec in each time	Number of succesfull intubations after three attempts
Time to Endotracheal Intubation	During intubation time, intubation attempts allows maximum 3 times, within 90 sec in each time	The duration of intubation is defined as the time from inserting videolaryngoscope, intubating a tube, to withdrawing videolaryngoscope using a stopwatch.

Secondary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Incidence of' oesophageal intubation	During intubation time, intubation attempts allows maximum 3 times, within 90 sec in each time	Number of oesophageal Intubations after three attempts
Ease of insertion	During intubation time, intubation attempts allows maximum 3 times, within 90 sec in each time ]	Described by the operator and defined in a subjective visual analogue scale (VAS) from 0 to 10 for each of the devices (0 extremely difficult to 10 extremely easy)
