Emergency Airway Management: From Devices to Systems

In this TIME episode, Jeremy and Hamish examine high-impact changes in emergency airway management across ED, ICU, and retrieval settings, including the role of videolaryngoscopy, structured oxygenation strategies, human-factors-driven algorithms, and ANZCA PG56–aligned airway governance. Drawing on contemporary trials, registry data, and guideline updates, the discussion focuses on how first-pass success, physiological stability, and team performance are best achieved through reliable systems rather than individual technical virtuosity.
