Novel Cost-Effective Model for Training Post-intubation Endotracheal Tube Placement Confirmation.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Intubation in emergency settings demands rapid confirmation of endotracheal tube (ETT) placement for establishing a definitive airway. Current methods, including capnography and auscultation, have limitations. This study introduces a cost-effective and easily accessible training model for confirming ETT placement using ultrasound, aiming to improve training and patient outcomes. We developed a gelatin and psyllium-based model that simulates adult ETT intubation, offering an alternative to costly cadaveric models. The model's construction is described, with materials costing approximately $7.34 per unit. Preliminary results show promise in simulating tracheal and esophageal intubation scenarios. This novel model provides an ethical and economical solution for training healthcare professionals in the ultrasound confirmation of ETT placement, paving the way for further validation and adoption in medical education.
