Evaluation of Foreign Body Airway Obstruction Interventions Through Simulation

"Participants will be shown a short educational video for each intervention. A research assistant acting as an instructor will be present to answer any questions that the students have about each of the techniques.~After training of all three techniques is complete, participants will be asked to respond to a choking scenario, using an assigned technique (the first one in their randomized order). Participants will use a mannequin (Choking Charlie, Laerdal Medical AS, Stavanger, Norway), with a simulated food bolus placed per manufacturer's directions, to complete each scenario. Participants will have up to four minutes to complete the intervention.~Each participant will repeat the two more times so that they attempt each intervention."
