Abstract：Objective To evaluate the training effect of different teaching methods on training of airway establishment for medical students.Methods Through voluntary application,200 clinical medical interns in Lanzhou University Second Hospital,from September to November 2019,were selected for prehospital emergency care.These interns of either gender,aged 20-28 years were divided into the traditional teaching group(n=100)and the simulation teaching group(n=100),according to random number table method.The tradi-tional teaching group received training through a conventional teaching model combined with advanced simulated human,while the simula-tion teaching group used simulation-based teaching combined with simulated human.The success rates and the time required for airway management were compared between the two groups.Results The time required for endotracheal intubation,laryngeal mask insertion,and esophageal-tracheal tube placement in the traditional teaching group were 18.66±4.76 min,7.08±1.13 min,6.47±1.65 min,respectively,which was significantly longer than those in the simulaion group(16.71±3.30 min,6.11±1.34 min,5.78±1.53 min).The simulation group demonstrated higher success rates and shorter time for endotracheal intubation and laryngeamask insertion(P＜0.01).Both groups achieved a 100％success rate for esophageal-tracheal tube placement,but the simulation group had a significantly shorter procedure time(P＜0.05).Conclusion Simulation-based teaching significanty enhances medical students'proficiency in airway management during pre-hospital emergency training.
