AIRWAY

Cost: A$110
Paul Baker

This workshop has two key components.

The first is demonstration and practice of techniques to intubate the difficult paediatric airway through airway conduits. The second is experience with the ORSIM simulator. The ORSIM simulator is a fiberoptic bronchoscopy simulator which realistically allows the practice of fiberoptic skills for both routine and more challenging anatomy and pathology. Both the adult and the new paediatric ORSIM will be used as learning aids during this workshop.

Nathan will lead an interactive discussion andactivities focussing on promoting effective teamwork.
