Episode 77: Dr. Jim Ducanto and Everything Airway
Dr. Jim Ducanto is an anesthesiologist that discusses airway management like it’s the final scene of an action movie. It’s very exciting, and your learn a lot without even realizing it. When we initially recorded this interview, we considered splitting it into two separate parts, but there’s just too much good information in this show to break it apart. You’re going to want to listen to this episode twice: once to listen, and once to take notes. Dr. Ducanto makes airway management exciting, and we’re thrilled to have him on the show. As a fun bonus, at the end of the episode you’ll be able to use the acronym BEEF SALAD correctly and impress all your friends.
