Emergency cricothyrotomy is a rare but life-saving procedure in the “can’t intubate, can’t oxygenate” patient. In this session, we’ll review a study that examines the use of simulation-based mastery learning to train emergency medicine residents in this high-stakes skill. Join us as we discuss how simulation, competency standards, and deliberate practice might shape training for one of the most critical procedures in airway management.
