About this trial
Advanced airway interventions are common high risk, high stakes events for children in intensive care units (ICU) and emergency departments (ED), with risk for life and health threatening consequences.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Primary advanced airway events (on patients of all ages) in the PICU, CICU, NICU, DR and ED including: Tracheal Intubation, Laryngeal mask placement, Emergency tracheostomy and/or cricothyrotomy
Failed extubation attempts or unplanned extubations that require re-intubation will be considered a new primary intubation.
Disqualifiers
Primary advanced airway events (tracheal intubations, laryngeal mask placement, emergency tracheostomy and/or cricothyrotomy) in the Operating Suites.
Trial population
All advanced airway events (tracheal intubations, laryngeal mask placement, emergency tracheostomy and cricothyrotomy) in PICUs, CICUs, NICUs, DRs and EDs during study period. Information regarding airway management events as well as select information regarding circumstances up to the event will be collected.
