What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of video laryngoscopy compared to direct laryngoscopy for endotracheal intubation performed by first-year anesthesiology residents. It aims to systematically collect data on the success rates and complications associated with each technique, addressing the challenges of airway management in clinical settings. By utilizing advanced video technology, the study seeks to enhance training and improve patient outcomes during intubation procedures.
