Make The Airway Safe Team (MAST)
​
The make the airway safe team (MAST) is an initiative to improve the emergency management of children with upper airway obstruction through multidisciplinary team training and the standardisation of care.

It focuses on three main themes: 
  • the need for an agreed management plan
  • the accessibility and training of the team
  • the availability and ease of access to equipment
The course consists of skills training and group scenarios to train hospital teams. The course is free to teams within the Wessex region and held at Southampton General Hospital in the clinical skills labs.

Whole teams are invited to apply.

Course aim and learning outcomes
This course aims to introduce and test a systematic multidisciplinary approach to managing paediatric airway emergencies.

​By the end of the course you will be able to:
  • establish who the key team members are involved in paediatric emergencies and how to contact them
  • know the equipment needed for emergencies and practice its usage and set up
  • work through an airway algorithm to ensure that a child with respiratory distress maintains oxygenation at all times whilst stabilising the airway.
On successful completion of the course you will receive PIER certification.

​Who is the course suitable for?

​Essential team members are:
  • anaesthetic consultant
