Intermediate Airways Course

An intermediate airway is a supraglottic airway device that is used as a rescue airway for failed endotracheal intubations in the ER or ICU.  LMA or King Tube placement are both options for difficult airway management. The laryngeal mask airway course uses advanced airway manikins to teach students the technique of LMA placement.  The LMA course also covers the limitations of the laryngeal mask airway. The King tube course uses advanced airway manikins to teach students the technique of King tube placement.  The King tube course also covers the limitations of the King tube placement.

Our Intermediate airways training is a component of our live Hospitalist and Emergency Procedures CME course which teaches clinicians how to perform the 20 most essential procedures needed to work in the ER, ICU, and hospital wards.
