    Introduction-Cricothyroidotomy is an advanced and life-saving technique, but it is also a rare and a difficult procedure. The purpose of the present study was to produce a low-cost simulation model with realistic anatomic features to investigate its effectiveness in developing cricothyroidotomy skills. Methods-This study was performed at a university simulation center with 57 second-year student paramedics and a cricothyroidotomy simulation model. Total scores were assessed using a checklist. This consisted of 13 steps and was scored as misapplication/omission=0, correct performance and timing with hesitation=1, and correct performance and timing without hesitation=2. One of these steps, local anesthesia of the area if time is available, was not performed owing to time limitations. The highest possible score was 24. Data are presented as mean +/- SD with range, as appropriate. Normal distribution was evaluated using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Student t test, and Mann-Whitney U test, and correlation analysis was used for statistical analysis. Results-Students completed the cricothyroidotomy procedure steps in 116 +/- 46 (55-238) s. At performance assessment, the score achieved was 12 +/- 5 (2-24). The highest total score of 24 was achieved by 3 students (5\%). Total scores exhibited negative and significant correlation with procedure time (r=-0.403, P=0.002). Conclusions-The model developed in this study is an inexpensive and effectivemethod that can be used in cricothyroidotomy training for student paramedics. We think that repeating the cricothyroidotomy procedure on the model will increase success levels.

    Comparison of self versus expert-assisted feedback for cricothyroidotomy training: a randomized trial
    (BMC, 2022-01-01) Aldinc, Hasan; Gun, Cem; Yaylaci, Serpil; Senuren, Cigdem Ozkaya; Guven, Feray; Sahiner, Melike; Kayayurt, Kamil; Turkmen, Suha
    Background The self-video feedback method may have the potential to provide a low-cost alternative to physician-driven simulation-based training. This study aimed to assess the utility of two video feedback methods by comparing the improvement in performing cricothyroidotomy procedure following self video feedback (trainees review their performance by themselves) and expert-assisted video feedback (trainees review their performance while an emergency physician provides additional feedback). Methods This study was pretest-posttest and two-group designed research performed at a university simulation center with 89 final-year medical students and used a cricothyroidotomy simulation model. After seeing an educational presentation and a best practice video, trainees were randomized into two groups
