Dear Egyptian College of Critical Care Physicians

Complications in airway management can result in devastating outcomes. How can we improve safety, prevent complications, and be prepared to manage difficulties when they arise? How, in a crisis, can we ensure that human and technical resources are best utilised? In the context of COVID-19, how can we safely manage our patients whilst protecting ourselves and our colleagues? Airway Matters explores answers to these questions.
The content of this supplementary weeks includes:
- Standards, guidelines and clinical governance
- Drugs and equipment for RSI
- Risk mitigation and patient management in preparation for advanced airway management
- Decision-making around pre-hospital anesthesia and intubation
- Video-laryngoscopy and in-cabin intubation
- Pre-hospital difficult or failed airway management, intra-arrest airway management and pre-oxygenation techniques
Airway Matters is FREE. It runs over 6 weeks with a flexible 4 hours of learning per week and is hosted by the UK’s largest free online course provider, FutureLearn. You are welcome to complete the entire course or just focus on the areas most relevant to your area of practice at this time.
