Modified cadaver technique to simulate contaminated airway scenarios to train medical providers in suction-assisted laryngoscopy and airway decontamination.
Article in AEM education and training, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Simulation training plays a vital role in modern medical education, fostering safe skill development. Task-trainer manikin and cadaveric airway management training (CAMT) offer realistic airway management practice. Simulation allows learners the opportunity to manage high-risk, low-frequency scenarios, including difficult airways and massive airway contamination, common in emergent airway management. The suction-assisted laryngoscopy and airway decontamination (SALAD) technique was developed to address massive airway contamination. This paper describes two methods to simulate massive airway contamination utilizing cadavers. We detail our techniques for both esophageal and nasopharyngeal delivery of simulated airway contaminant. Nasopharyngeal delivery was less invasive and required less time to set up. Utilizing cadavers to simulate massive airway contamination in CAMT provides learners with tools to manage airway complications effectively, enhancing readiness for complex airway challenges while promoting patient safety in clinical practice.
