Improving learning of a clinical skill: the first year's experience of teaching endotracheal intubation in a clinical simulation facility

Background  All medical practitioners should be able to manage the airway of an unconscious patient. Endotracheal intubation is the most effective method of securing the airway but is a complex skill requiring much practice. Traditionally, endotracheal intubation has been taught on patients, but this is not ideal.
