COVID Chronicles #003 | Lon Setnik: Rebuilding the Airway Process in New Hampshire - a podcast by Center for Medical Simulation

Lon Setnik (twitter.com/lonsetnik) is an emergency physician and medical director of the Forrest D. McKerley Simulation and Education Center at Concord Hospital. He joined Jenny Rudolph to discuss his work creating the COVID-19 Suspected or Confirmed Airway Management Checklist, which in combination with extensive simulation practice has been keeping providers safe at his hospital.

Intubation during the COVID-19 outbreak is one of the more dangerous procedures for our teams. We worked across the organization to create an approach that would keep our patients and providers as safe as possible during this pandemic.

The COVID-19 Suspected or Confirmed Airway Management Checklist is designed for the team to use outside the room as they set up for managing the airway, and inside the room to remind them how their job should be performed in this new process.
