First-Person video plus mental rehearsal may speed up learning of lifesaving newborn procedure
NCT ID NCT07678424
First seen Jul 01, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares two teaching methods for inserting a laryngeal mask airway (LMA) in newborns. One group learns from a standard live instructor demonstration, while the other watches a first-person point-of-view video and practices mentally. The goal is to see which approach helps novice healthcare professionals perform the procedure better and faster on a simulator.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If effective, this training method could improve how quickly and well healthcare professionals learn a critical newborn airway skill.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small simulation study, not a real clinical setting. Results may not translate to actual patient care or to experienced providers.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Being a licensed healthcare professional (physicians, midwives, nurses, paramedics, or emergency medical technicians) currently participating in or eligible for the Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) training. 2. Having no prior practical, clinical, or simulator-based experience with neonatal laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion. 3. Voluntarily consenting to participate in the study and complete all evaluation procedures (OSCE and NASA-TLX). Exclusion Criteria: 1. Having previous hands-on experience or formal advanced training specifically in neonatal LMA stabilization or insertion. 2. Declining to participate or failing to complete any phase of the allocated educational intervention or subsequent assessment. 3. Having visual, auditory, or cognitive impairments that would interfere with viewing the point-of-view (POV) video or performing the structured mental practice.
