From: The influence of different patient positions during rapid induction with severe regurgitation on the volume of aspirate and time to intubation: a prospective randomised manikin simulation study

Fig. 3

Setup of the manikin: (a) The tracheal tree was modified by inserting two detachable reservoirs that collected the aspirated fluid while leaving ventilation unchanged. The oesophagus was connected to the pneumatically driven liquid reservoir with a flexible hose; (b) Operational manikin. During simulations, the pneumatic system and liquid reservoir were hidden from the participants by surgical drapes
