MDCAST: Beyond the Blade - Redefining Airway Success in Transport
In this episode of the FlightBridgeED Podcast, Dr. Mike Lauria welcomes back Dr. Nick George to dissect a topic that’s long overdue for critical discussion: airway management in critical care transport—and whether your background matters. Does being a paramedic or a nurse predict first-pass success rate? Does prior training or clinical experience truly change how well you manage airways in high-stakes situations? Drawing from new research involving over 7,800 intubations at a major HEMS program, Dr. George presents data that challenges long-held assumptions and explores the impact of training, experience, and clinical culture on airw...
