Introduction to SALAD & Airway Decontamination

UPGRADE YOUR AIRWAY DECON SKILLS WITH THE DUCANTO SALAD
introduction

AUDIO COMING SOON

In this space Dr Jim DuCanto master educator and creator of the SALAD technique will teach you how to overcome one of the most feared scenarios in airway management. Massive airway contamination. When vomit, blood, or secretions are actively filling up the orc-pharynx in the peri-intubation period, life sucks. So before you panic or give up on that video laryngoscope, learn how a well designed rigid suction catheter and the integration of a few skills with your laryngoscopy technique can be a game changer.

Meet the creator of SALAD

Dr James DuCanto, MD, is an anaesthesiologist, master educator and innovator dedicated to improving airway management. He is the inventor of the SALAD (Suction Assisted Laryngoscopy & Airway Decontamination) simulator and the SSCOR DuCanto Catheter.
