Clinical Anatomy


You don’t just need an understanding of airway anatomy, you need a clinically relevant understanding of airway anatomy. Here’s what you need to know to be successful.

Tools of the Trade


The three upper airway lifelines are the foundational tools of oxygenation.

Emergency Procedure


FONA is the final common pathway for a failed airway, but knowing the path is different from walking the path. Success requires more than procedural skills: it requires cultivating a mindset that will allow you to make the cut in a moment of need.


Managing Anatomic Difficulty

Introduction

Hyperangulated video laryngoscopy (HAVL) is an effective device but requires new skills, the addition of a new tool, and an upgraded mental model to leverage its full potential. Let’s get into it here.

tracheal access devices

introducers are all about the delivery. Unlike endotracheal tubes, which are primarily for safe and efficient gas exchange, a tube introducer needs to make no such compromises in design.

fiberoptic skills

The video laryngoscope changed the game of endotracheal tube delivery. So what role does fiberoptic intubation (FOl) still play in the current age of VL? Enter this space and learn from the experts how to integrate this tool into your daily practice,
