Registered outcomes5
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of attempts required to achieve competency in the CUSUM learning curves for each airway ultrasound measurement | 3 months | The number of attempts required for trainees to achieve competency in the CUSUM learning curves for each airway ultrasound measurement. A successful measurement is defined by meeting both of the following criteria: (1) the trainee's measurement is within ±20% of the expert reference measurement; and (2) the trainee's measurement and the expert reference measurement are on the same side of the cutoff point for predicting airway difficulty. Competency is determined when the CUSUM score crosses the two downward decision lines. |
| Secondary | To assess the mean difference between the benchmark expert measurements and the trainee measurements | 3 months | The mean difference between benchmark expert measurements and trainee measurements for each airway ultrasound parameter: tongue thickness, skin-to-epiglottis distance, and skin-to-vocal-cords distance. This outcome will assess the accuracy of trainee measurements compared with expert reference measurements. |
| Secondary | To assess the overall success rate and the success rate for each measurement | During the initial training session. | The overall success rate across all trainee airway ultrasound measurement attempts and the success rate for each individual measurement: tongue thickness, skin-to-epiglottis distance, and skin-to-vocal-cords distance. A successful measurement is defined as one that is within ±20% of the expert reference measurement and is on the same side of the cutoff point for predicting airway difficulty. |
| Secondary | To assess the duration of US measurements | During the initial training session. | The duration of each airway ultrasound measurement, measured from initial ultrasound probe placement to the recording of the measurement. This outcome will assess the time required for trainees to perform each airway ultrasound measurement. |
| Secondary | To assess the 3-month skill retention for correct US measurements | 3 months | The proportion of correct airway ultrasound measurements performed by trainees at the three-month follow-up assessment, evaluating retention of measurement skills following the initial training session. Correct measurements will be assessed using the study-defined criteria for a successful measurement: within ±20% of the expert reference measurement and on the same side of the cutoff point for predicting airway difficulty. |
