Anaesthetist-provided pre-hospital advanced airway management in children:a descriptive study
Editor’s key points summary:
- Paediatric airway management is not as easy as you might think, especially in emergencies and prehospital
- The authors’ suggestion that only anaesthetists trained in paediatric airways and undertaking regular hospital training including simulation, should be managing paediatric prehospital airways is quite a bold statement and not necessarily supported by the very limited data they present here.
- The excellent point by this study to note is that we all need regular training on paediatric airway management and its not all about VL and scalpel bougie!
