Thanks Prof. for listening to my talk in @AfricanAirway in UCT. The mobile phone is an easy solution to spread airway resources across Africa @rosshofmeyr @altgm @carl_hillermann @Uma1r_F1 @CyprianMendonca
@jawthrust @dwaruingi @AfricanAirway Yes the mobile phone will bring knowledge and resources to your practise with smart airway apps, for example difficult airway app, airway ex or @AirwayTriageApp

Definitely a first for Groote Schuur, UCT and #AfricanAirways - scenes from the multidisciplinary Prehospital Airway Workshop with clinicians from all backgrounds learning with and from the #prehospital pro’s.

IV oxygen delivery, robotic laryngoscopy & Lubo collars. Of course ultrasound gaining more ground. Lots of food for thought and novel developments which need to be increasingly informed by big data & airway registries (especially in Africa) @AfricanAirway 👩💻 🌍 🫁

@AfricanAirway The TwinStream is a multi-mode ventilation system for tubeless jet ventilation. It is the first microprocessor-driven, Superimposed, High-Frequency Jet Ventilation (SHFJV) system and sets an entirely new standard in the industry. #jetventilation
