The Severn Airway Training Society (SATS) present a training day focussed on airway rescue techniques outlined by the Difficult Airway Society (DAS) 2015 guidelines. Following an introductory lecture outlining the guidelines and using their structure to potentially plan difficult airway management the candidates will rotate through five skill stations. In small groups and under close expert supervision they will be introduced to and practice skills which empower them to manage any difficult airway competently and appropriately.
