Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy vs SWAAC ELSO APP

Finally there is an app that tells you the appropriate fiberoptic scope for the endotracheal, double lumen tube or blocker that you want to use. Just select the ETT you want and the app will give you the maximum fiberoptic scope that will fit through. You can use that size or the next size smaller. This app takes all the uncertainty out of a possible emergent situation, and it does it with just one touch. Don't fumble around sticking the scope through all those tubes just to find the right one. Get your answer, fast!

The conference will include sessions with various multi-disciplinary backgrounds including ECLS for anaesthetists, cardiologist, cardiac and transplant surgeons, and paediatricians. It will also outline ECLS management from the perspective of other disciplines like radiologists, vascular surgeons and the multidisciplinary team members including physiotherapists, clinical dietitians, infectious disease and palliative care specialists. Cross disciplinary work provides a platform for excellence in care through integrating multiple branches of knowledge under one umbrella. Furthermore, an update on ECLS education and quality assurance as well as recent innovations will also be highlighted. The conference will be preceded by pre- conference workshops from the 12th-14th of February which will cover multiple aspects including adult and pediatric ECLS therapy with hands on training on cannulation, trouble shooting and simulation. We look forward to meeting you in Kuwait in the lovely month of February which will be also our National Day month where Kuwait will be lit with lights and activities for the national celebrations.
