Advanced Airway Management
By Apollo Simulation Centre
Description
Securing the airway is integral to managing a clinical emergency. There is a need to act rapidly and efficiently and ensure uninterrupted supply of oxygen and when traditional methods are ineffective, knowledge and technical skills in advanced airway management can significantly improve patient outcomes. Both novice and seasoned practitioners can benefit from recurring practice to hone their skills. ASC’s Advanced Airway Management course offers clinicians a structured and standardised protocol to assess and handle difficult airway management and training in proper management of high-risk events with no danger of injury to a real patient. The course will cover basic airway skills and adjuncts in airway management, video laryngoscopy and bougie guided intubation, fibreoptic bronchoscopy, intubation through supraglottic airway device, surgical cricothyroidotomy and percutaneous dilational tracheostomy.
