Take a look at this interesting article from the U.K. They identified a problem and saw an opportunity to improve. Imagine if you will this study was done in Gainesville; wherever you worked today,last week, last month, do you know the location of the D.A cart? Do people that would be in charge of assisting you in case of a problem know the location and contents of this cart? If you choose jet ventilation as an alternative therapeutic option, do you know how to connect the O2 outlet in the anesthesia machine?
