Highlights from the BJA session at #Euroanaesthesia #EA26 Universal VL in adults & children - the debate is over!

@ProfEllenO Hi Prof. Sullivan, I'm an anesthesiologist in Japan and just watched your lecture at JSA73 on demand. Thank you very much for your excellent presentation. It was truly insightful. I'd like to translate 'Air Bites' or other educational materials.

Live from the #EA26 ‘situation room’ 👀 The Scientific Committee is putting the final touches on the Rotterdam programme. The verdict? Rotterdam is where you need to be. zurl.co/bbSdd #Euroanaesthesia2026 #ESAIC

Personally I think glottic impersonation is very rare indeed in adults. The fact that the image used is cropped from a wider image that shows both orifices maybe makes that point. I don’t think it is the ‘explanation’ for oesophageal intubation that some seem to think it is. That’s just getting a poor view and poor delivery of the tube (most commonly during DL) and we’ve ALL done it. However use of laryngeal grading that does not aid communication or even obfuscates is super common….. Completely agree with your point about the need to confirm intubation with waveform capnography… but that needs a system and the system is “sustained exhaled CO2” (noting that no trace wrong place has been officially retired)

Listening to Imran @dr_imranahmad talk about Awake Tracheal Intubation at #WCA2026 is like rewatching a cult classic - you catch a new detail every time… and still wonder how he makes it look so easy 😄 #Anaesthesia

Sadly it is not widespread… it took me years of complaining to make it happen in the hospitals I work. Resp therapists know that I want them to have waveform capnography ready when I intubate but not everybody asks for it … 🤷‍♂️

Back from the Easter break? Time to invest in CPD that truly makes a difference. #GAMC2026 brings 30 lectures, 3 streams, a standout keynote, and small group expert sessions all in one day. Are you booked?
