Abstract

It is very critical to promptly maintain airway of cardiac arrest cases or serious traumatic cases. The purpose of this study is to compare intubation rate, successful rate and pre-/post-education self-confidence between laryngeal tube (LTS) and proseal laryngeal mask (PLMA), so that it may contribute to improving the ability of 119 emergency team - a pivotal role in pre-hospitalization process - to carry out advanced airway management. In order to achieve the purpose, total 60 paramedics (Class I) who worked for incumbent 119 emergency team were asked to join a practical experiment and were also divided into two groups (LTS group: 30 people, PLMA group: 30 people). In details, they were all asked to take 3 sessions of practice (5 minutes per session) using dummy model to quantitatively measure the time and success/failure of intubation and the change of their self-confidence. As a result, it was found that there were statistically significant differences in the time of intubation between LTS and PLMA group (p=.000), but there was no significant difference in the rate of successful intubation between these two groups, and self-confidence of two groups tended to significantly increase after experiment (p=.000). Conclusively, if it is necessary to promptly apply intubation to traumatic cases with immobilized cervical vertebral and lingual edema, LTS can be useful as an effective means of intubation. And it is expected that continuing intubation training using LTS will improve the ability of emergency team to perform advanced airway management for traumatic cases.

심정지 또는 중증 외상 환자의 신속한 기도유지는 매우 중요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 후두튜브(LTS)와 후두마스크(PLMA)의 삽관 속도, 성공률, 교육 전 후 자신감 변화를 비교하여 병원 전 단계의 주축을 담당하고 있는 119구급대의 전문기도관리 능력을 향상 시키는데 있다. 연구 대상자는 119구급대원 중 1급 응급구조사 60명(LTS군 30명, PLMA군 30명)이며 마네킹을 대상으로 5분간 3회 실습 후 삽관 소요시간과 성공 여부, 자신감 변화를 측정하였다. 연구결과 LTS와 PLMA를 이용한 삽관 시간은 유의한 차이를 보였고(p=.000), 성공률은 유의한 차이가 없으며, 실험 후 자신감은 유의하게 상승하였다(p=.000). 결론적으로 경추가 고정되고 혀 부종이 있는 외상환자에게 신속한 삽관이 필요한 경우 LTS 사용이 효과적이며 교육을 통하여 전문기도관리 능력을 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
