About this episode

This episode discusses the Aeris Airways device and its potential to improve airway management.

As more procedures move into outpatient settings and deep sedation becomes more common, the need for better oxygen delivery and reliable monitoring has never been more important. That’s where the Aeris Airways device comes in. It’s a simple but powerful innovation designed to enhance standard airway tools, and we’re diving into it with Cody Birch, CRNA and Airways Innovations Co-Founder, and Diana Lugo Imus, DNAP, CRNA.
