Hi folks. I rant on surgical airways for 21 minutes

Enjoy!

Show notes:

1. Carotid sheath ‘intubation’ during an emergency surgical cricothyroidotomy

2. Need to consider human factors when determining first-line technique for emergency front-of-neck access
3. Reply from NAP4 authors on needle cricothyroidotomy
4. Equipment and strategies for emergency tracheal access in the adult patient
