The James Cook Airway Course 2017

The James Cook Airway Course is organized by South Tees Institute of Learning, Research and Innovation and would be held during Jan 5 - 6, 2017 at James Cook University Hospital, Middlesbrough, England, United Kingdom.

The James Cook Airway Course is a programme aimed at training trainees and consultants who would like to have training in fibreoptic intubation. Awake fireoptic intubation is a procedure often difficult to obtain in clinical practice and this course allows delegates to perform topical local anaesthesthesia of the airway and perform awake fibreoptic intubation using the actual course delegates as volunteers. However, the delegate can either act as a volunteer or as observer who would not be expected to undergo endoscopy or intubation.
