Dear colleague,
Airway errors are so common , rampant, especially tube displacement. Every transport is prone for such airway disasters. Recently we had a displaced tube issue in the group which was accompanied by a faculty. Displacement was identified by Icu people . We were not able to identify the displaced tube. This phenomenon is universal. That is why NAP 4 study emphasis the use of capnography in all intubations and all transports should be under capnographic monitoring only. I ask you to keep this standard in all of your airway interventions and transports irrespective of intra or inter hospital transports. If your department is not equipped to this level , urgently raise a CAPX and implement it. Personally you must look into it and the needful to make it happen. DrVenu
