Adam Rehak and Gerri Khong walk through the good, the bad and the ugly of human factors in airway management. Using video footage of a highly realistic (tachycardia inducing) simulated airway emergency, the multi-stage case discussion canvases both audience responses and the input of a panel of human factors experts: David Brewster, Brooke Dench, Ben Meadley and Ian Summers, to illustrate that airway management is far more than just a technical skill. Instead, it will become clear that success is equally dependent on careful preparation, coordinated teamwork, precise communication and effective cognitive tools.
This session was recorded at the SAS workshop at CODA22 which took place in Melbourne in September 2022.

Panel Description
Are we safe when we intubate COVID-19 patients? Are CPAP, high-flow oxygen, and intubation AGPs? Two years into this pandemic, what should we be doing at work to keep ourselves safe? An international panel of experts presents their research, emerging evidence and review current
practice. Andy Shrimpton presents the game-changing AERATOR studies, Forbes McGain presents his experience with the ventilation hood and Jo Simpson reviews the historical evidence regarding AGPs and her work on aerosol containment devices.
Finally, Tim Cook, who was awarded an OBE for services to anaesthesia during COVID-19, brings the session together with his take on the evidence surrounding healthcare worker safety during the pandemic.
