A difficult airway trolley keeps everything an emergency airway needs in one place, ready to be wheeled to the bedside the moment a standard intubation fails.
The value of a dedicated trolley is that the team is not opening drawers looking for equipment while a patient desaturates. Drawers can be laid out to your department’s difficult airway algorithm, so each level of the plan sits in its own drawer and anyone on the team can find what the airway lead calls for.
It rolls to theatre, recovery, ICU or the emergency department, and the stainless and laminate surfaces clean down properly between uses and restocks.
