Emergency airway access: Ultrasound helps

Accessing the front of the neck in an emergency
can be daunting, especially if it looks difficult from the outside.
We will show you how ultrasound can reduce worries
and guide the way to safety. Access can be done real-time
or by marking. We can show you available evidence
and you can practice something that you can
incorporate into your skillset, but hopefully never have to use!

and we will show you some first steps that could lead on
to a path towards formal accreditation, with the background behind it.
