MASTER THE AIRWAY

Securing a critically ill patient's airway is a risky procedure that puts their life in your hands. That's why the Total Airway Workshop is not just a workshop where you intubate mannequins all day. This immersive workshop will take you through all the necessary steps to properly oxygenate and ventilate your patients from the moment you decide to intubate. You will learn:

• How to resuscitate before you intubate
