Simulation for Neonatal Endotracheal Intubation Training: How Different Is It From Clinical Practice?

Conclusions Simulation-based training does not fully prepare neonatal-perinatal medicine fellows for neonatal intubation. Mannequins with unique active features, such as multiple airway configurations, slipperiness, secretions, and softer textures should be developed. Realistic environments that replicate the interprofessional nature and stressors of the clinical environment might better prepare learners for the complexity of clinical practice.
