New Intubation Method - looking for feedback from the field

Hi guys. I went over some data after I got the impression that the use of SGA is very common in the states. Can the supporters of the SGA bring here some data contradicting what I posted?

Where were those 10000 patients treated? Who intubated them? 4.7 % of about 8000 patients and 3.9% of about 2000 patients with "favorable" outcomes doesn't mean anything.

Some systems are very good at intubating and some are really bad. Some do it all the time and some very rarely. Data like these don't add much to the conversation if the goal is to say one is better than the other.
 
@Ishay Benuri MD The best data on SGA vs. ETI vs. "BLS" management (BVM with adjuncts) is an RCT, as you are probably aware. In the absence of a RCT, particularly where there is so much conflicting (and relatively low quality evidence), it really isn't clear whether ETT is superior to SGAs or BVM + adjuncts in cardiac arrest.
