I was invited to give a talk on airway management and ventilation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation at Notfallmedizin 2018: ‘Ventilation in CPR: Don’t forget the flow – blood flow!’. This is the biannual congress on emergency medicine of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Notfallmedizin (AGN). This year it was held on April 6-7 in Graz, Austria. It was an awesome conference where a complete track was in English and broadcasted through their YouTube channel. So the spirit of FOAMed was alive and kicking. It was great to meet people whose research I have been reading and with whom I was in contact with through social media. The best part of these conferences is exchanging thoughts with fellow resuscitationists so I went home with lots of new ideas and inspiration to improve resuscitation and new friends to collaborate with. Thanks to AGN for recording the lectures so we are able to spread the learning. Special shout out to Simon Orlob, you have been a great host!

I hope you will find this lecture interesting and it will help you in your next cardiac arrest resuscitation. Feel free to post a comment, I would love to hear your thoughts!
