Abstract

Failure to secure the airway on induction of anaesthesia can result in death and disability. Current equipment does not always provide an optimum solution. Most anaesthetists consider bougies essential equipment for safe anaesthesia. Evaluative systems providing accurate objective data assessing bougie introducer performance data do not exist. The Shape Retention Testing System (SRTS) utilises the Intel® RealSenseTM SR300 camera to create an accurate and repeatable testing environment. SRTS collected data will allow anaesthetists to compare device performance that will inform purchase and usage decisions of bougies, ensuring optimum benefit for safe practice.
