The Timeline has its own event type for airway management — separate from procedures because airway data is high-value and gets analyzed on its own.
Add an airway event
- On the Timeline tab, tap Add Airway.
- Pick the airway intervention — bag-valve-mask, oral airway, nasal airway, supraglottic device, endotracheal tube, surgical airway, suction.
- Enter the time.
- Enter the size if relevant (for example, ET tube size 7.5).
- Enter the number of attempts.
- Mark whether it was successful.
- Pick any complication.
- Confirm the airway placement method if you used one (waveform capnography, breath sounds, chest rise).
- Pick the crew member who performed it.
- Tap Save.
An example
You respond to a cardiac arrest. You start with bag-valve-mask ventilation while your partner does compressions. After two rounds of CPR you place a King airway on the first attempt. You confirm placement with capnography and continue ventilations through the King. Add two airway events to the Timeline: BVM at the first time, then King airway, size 4, 1 attempt, successful, capnography confirmed a few minutes later.
