First pass advanced airway insertion success is associated with fewer adverse events. We sought to compare out-of-hospital endotracheal intubation (ETI) and supraglottic airway (SGA) first-pass success (FPS) rates between adults and children in a national cohort of EMS agencies. ⋯ In this national cohort of out-of-hospital patients, ETI FPS was higher for adults than children. SGA FPS did not significantly vary with age. SGA FPS was higher than ETI FPS at all ages.
