Join us as we explore the strange disconnect between this supposedly fundamental skill set and its real world implementation.

Introduction

When the room is buzzing and you suddenly find yourself faced with a patient in respiratory failure, the bag valve mask is what we most often reach for as our first line of defense to protect them from hypoxia, but despite the vital role this device plays in airway management, in the real world, its use is often suboptimal. So we’re going to dig into the technical and human reasons for that here and then talk about what we can do about it in our own practice to make things better.
