difficult airway society

The Difficult Airway Society (DAS) is a professional organization in the UK focused on improving the management of difficult airway situations in medical settings, particularly during anesthesia. When a patient’s airway is challenging to access for breathing support, it can pose significant risks. DAS provides guidelines, training, and resources for healthcare professionals to enhance patient safety and treatment outcomes. Their work helps ensure that medical teams are prepared to handle complex airway issues effectively, contributing to better care during surgeries and emergencies.
