The advent of telemedicine has introduced teleguidance as a promising support to enhance endotracheal intubation skills among inexperienced operators. Several studies showed the effectiveness of supervisor assisted ETI using the various VL devices and commercial videoconferencing softwares. However, recent developments in VL technologies introduced the VL integrated videoconferencing features for this purpose. Scoper VL device (Technomedicare Inc, Turkiye) developed a real-time teleconsultation feature for difficult airway scenarios to be assisted by experts during the procedure. However, the literature is very limited about the effectiveness and feasibility of teleguidance-facilitated airway management. This high-fidelity simulation study aims to assess impact of teleguidance-facilitated airway management on the success of ETI performed by inexperienced operators in a mobile ambulance.
