Our in-person airway workshops provide you with the opportunity to obtain, maintain and enhance difficult airway management skills within a small group teaching environment. Supportive and expert faculty provide a hands-on and interactive approach to learning, enabling you to learn and practice core technical and non-technical skills including:

  • flexible bronchoscopy
  • supraglottic airway devices
  • awake tracheal intubation
  • videolaryngoscopy
