LIMA PULSE

Programme / Day 2

LIMA PULSE · Day 2C

Emergency airway workshop

Oxygenate. Rescue. Escalate. Built around the equipment on our own crash carts: the rescue ladder, two-person bag-mask ventilation, the supraglottic airway, and confirmation while CO₂ detection is awaited.

Doctors and nurses · ~85 minutes teaching · three skills stations + team scenario

At our centre
  • Supraglottic airway: LMA Classic and LMA ProSeal on our carts, inserted by the doctor · maximum 3 attempts (DAS 2025).
  • No CO₂ detection yet → a tracheal tube cannot be confirmed reliably, so the SGA comes first.
  • Tracheal intubation only by a physician with documented competence · no RSI drugs · no front-of-neck airway here.
  • Cannot oxygenate → declare it, best two-person mask or SGA, senior help, transfer.

Final edition · v2.0 · 18 October 2026. Oman MOH policy and approved local protocols take precedence; device details follow the manufacturer’s instructions; resuscitation follows AHA 2025 (never mixed with ERC).
