Table 4. Adjusted analysis of work surface contamination rate by protective method and variables of interest.
Variables | Odds ratio (95% confidence interval) | P value |
---|---|---|
Protective method (BladePouch vs. single or double gloves†) | 0.0054 (0.0009–0.0314) | <0.001 |
Intubation device (video laryngoscope vs. direct laryngoscope) | 1.82 (0.51–6.53) | 0.353 |
Professional role of participant | 0.393 | |
Allied health professional vs. trainee | 2.39 (0.44–13.11) | |
Attending physician vs. trainee | 7.13 (0.30–170.93) | |
Number of previous intubations | 0.079 | |
16–30 vs. ≤15 | 9.28 (1.07–80.34) | |
>30 vs. ≤15 | 0.67 (0.07–6.50) |
†, since all (40/40) single gloves protective method trials resulted in work surface contamination, the single and double gloves protective methods were combined in the modeling of the work surface contamination outcome.
