We’re thrilled to unveil the newest evolution of our PAC Learning Space for hyperangulated video laryngoscopy (HAVL). PAC isn’t just about courses; it’s about creating immersive, interactive training environments you can set up anywhere to make airway training more accessible.
This updated version is packed with fresh features, including new training videos, in-depth learning modules, and simple, step-by-step guides for building your own HAVL pop-up space. It’s hands-on training that truly meets you where you are.
We can’t wait to show you what’s possible with a PAC learning space. Take a look.
Why HAVL Deserves Dedicated Practice
Hyperangulated Video Laryngoscopy (HAVL) has revolutionized airway management. By breaking free from the limits of direct line-of-sight, HAVL delivers an unparalleled view of the glottis. But as any experienced clinician knows, getting the view is only part of the challenge; delivering the tube smoothly is where skill meets mastery.
That’s why we’ve built a PACscape dedicated to HAVL: a dynamic, hands-on training environment designed to help you refine technique, deepen spatial understanding, and gain confidence with this powerful tool through our innovative teaching style that seamlessly integrates online and hands-on practice opportunities into one program.
What’s Inside This Learning Space
HAVL isn’t just “video laryngoscopy with a different blade.” It’s a shift in how you think about airway geometry, tube delivery, and the relationship between what you see on the screen and how you navigate the curves of the airway. Here you will learn to:
Think in curves – The airway follows two major curves: around the tongue, and down the trachea. Understanding them during HAVL will allow you to deliver the tube effectively.
Align view and pathway – A great view means nothing if the tube isn’t aligned with the tracheal axis. HAVL success hinges on translating your visual target into smooth, controlled navigation.
Master the rigid stylet – With HAVL, the rigid stylet becomes a precision tool. Proper shaping, insertion, and withdrawal are key to seamless tube placement.

Bottom Line
Hyperangulated video laryngoscopy (HAVL) delivers unparalleled glottic views, even in the most challenging airways, but seeing isn’t the same as succeeding. True mastery comes from precise blade control, rigid stylet skills, and a confident delivery technique that works in real-world conditions.
Our new PAC HAVL learning space is designed to bridge that gap. It blends immersive, hands-on stations with targeted video instruction and deep-dive modules, transforming great visualization into consistently successful intubations. You’ll work through the steps of mastery at your pace, refine your technique with expert guidance, and build the muscle memory that makes skill stick.
Come ready to practice.
