Why report cases of complications from ICU and the emergency department if they’re not being used for incidence calculations?
In addition to calculating the incidence of major complications of airway management during anaesthesia we will be reviewing each reported case in detail. We anticipate that many difficult cases (and therefore complications) will arise from ICU and the emergency department. We anticipate that review of these cases will be of interest and use in generating cross-specialty learning. Please report all relevant cases that occur in ICU or the emergency department.
