Did you know re-processing reusable devices produces this much plastic waste? Jennifer Gregory from Ambu is telling us how single use devices are made from bioplastics and the Ambu recircle pilot

000

Difficult Airway Society (DAS) Residents @dasresidents.bsky.social · 06/06/2025

For our final session we have Dr Rob McCahon talking through the economic realities of single versus reusable devices. Departments need to consider their own usage: low rates of usage favour single use devices. ENT and anaesthetic departments may benefit from different devices

Difficult Airway Society (DAS) Residents @dasresidents.bsky.social · 06/06/2025

DAS president Prof Al McNarry is up next with his enthusiastic talk for both universal VL and awake VL, and situations where awake VL performs better than awake FB.

Difficult Airway Society (DAS) Residents @dasresidents.bsky.social · 28/03/2025

One suggestion: could a heat map, like this one for regional, help residents and TPDs understand which skills can be offered across the deanery and help plan rotations? @dasairway.bsky.social @rcoanews.bsky.social

Difficult Airway Society (DAS) Residents @dasresidents.bsky.social · 28/03/2025

Difficult Airway Society (DAS) Residents @dasresidents.bsky.social · 28/03/2025

first this afternoon we have Dr Samantha Warnakulasuriya discussing results from a national survey showing good practice but also safety gaps in airway practice and how we could share learning between hospitals using the Airway Lead network @dasairway.bsky.social @rcoanews.bsky.social
