NextGen Learning To Elevate Your Airway Practice
An Integrated Learning Space
To Build Durable Skills
PAC is an integrated learning system, not a single course. Our digital content supports multiple learning styles, on your schedule. Begin in the PACscape to explore the concepts, mental models, and procedural frameworks that underpin safe airway management.
Need CME or an online course for yourself or your program? Our CME-enabled resources provide structured, on-demand education that stands on its own.
But airway skills are not built on screens alone. The same curriculum extends into the physical world through pop-up learning and hands-on training deployed where you work. Graphic, interactive posters guide procedures, skills challenges, expert coaching, and high-fidelity simulation, using a shared language across digital and physical spaces.
For deeper, tailored training, teams can book customized small-group sessions in our studio, or attend live courses and flagship events in New York City and partner sites worldwide.
The result is continuity—from online learning, to hands-on practice, to real-world performance. PAC gives you the tools, structure, and flexibility required for next-generation airway training.

Introduction
Has this ever happened to you? You place a nasopharyngeal airway to assist face mask ventilation and cause some inadvertent bleeding. You try to intubate, but your optimal view is gone, and you’re beginning to feel the stress. Gravity Anterior epistaxis can quickly become a difficult or failed intubation. The ability to rapidly control epistaxis is a handy skill in airway management. We show you how here.
Rapid Review
Here is a short video about the Rapid Rhino device and how to insert it. When you’re done here look for the guided practice station associated with this content for hands on training.
Contraindications
Remember, this maneuver is primarily for isolated anterior epistaxis only. Significant facial trauma or basilar skull fractures are a contraindication for its use. When bleeding is causing hemodynamic instability or serious airway compromise, using the device is a judgment call.
Guided Practice Tools
If you’re in one of our PAC Live learning spaces, use these multimedia tools for self-guided practice. When you’re ready, visit our faculty coaches and demonstrate your technique to collect your points!
