ADHB Airway Training

Posted on March 22, 2018 by Elspeth Frascatore

Please find below some airway orientation videos made by Auckland ED, used to supplement airway training sessions. These are primarily about equipment location and setup, rather than specific intubation techniques. They are department specific, however would be of use to any team looking to set up their own intubation trolleys and interested in what other departments are doing! By watching these in advance, we can ensure that you can get down to “the good stuff” on the day, rather than being stuck on this nitty gritty!

1. AED Airway Orientation – Introduction

2. AED Airway Orientation – The Tower

3. AED Airway Orientation – Airway Cart

4. AED Airway Orientation – Other Equipment

Please also take this short quiz to reinforce key learning points!

Thanks Team!
