Bougie boosts beginner intubation success in manikin study
NCT ID NCT07422467
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compared two tools—a bougie and a stylet—for placing a breathing tube in a manikin. 136 sixth-year medical students with no real intubation experience each tried four techniques. The main goal was to see which tool led to successful tube placement on the first try.
