Aim: Endotracheal intubation is an important element of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. It is necessary to have an adequate experience with endotracheal intubation during pediatric residency. In our clinic we prepare the simulation based endotracheal intubation educations for residents of pediatrics. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the success of our endotracheal intubation education program. Materials and Methods: The residents received two simulation based endotracheal intubation training in a course program one-year apart. The success rates of residents were compared in terms of endotracheal intubation performance. Results: Intubation success rates were 80 % (28/35) at the end of the first program and 100% (35/35) at the end of the second; the difference was found to be statistically significant (χ2 = 7.667, p = 0.006). The mean time of successful endotracheal intubation in both programs were 14,14 ± 4,16 sec and 8,22 ± 3,58 sec, respectively. Intubation times in the second program were found to be significantly lower than the first (p <0.01). Conclusion: In our study, we found that simulation based endotracheal intubation educations which were performed one year apart through high-fidelity manikins, increased the success rate of endotracheal intubation attempts and shorten the time for intubation. Keywords: Simulation, education, endotracheal intubation, pediatric residents, manikins.
