Abstract

Purpose of the study: Immediate access to expert vital function support is a cornerstone of Critical Emergency Medicine (CREM) specialty, where all multidisciplinary team players know their roles, responsibilities and limitations. Airway management in CREM setting is challenging, with human error playing the most important role. Thus, CREM concept of multidisciplinary team approach in the management of high acuity airway emergencies brought nurses on the verge of the dawn of a new golden era. It is essential for CREM nurses to possess all available competences for immediate airway function support. Correspondingly, United Arab Emirates (UAE) Ministry of Health and Prevention (MOHAP) highlighted nurse's role in CREM environment as pivotal, which lead to implementation of innovative airway management training programme (ABC CREM), principally focusing on airway skills hands – on training, together with non – technical skills (NTS) teaching. The aim of our study was to identify the ABC CREM programme growth in UAE since inaugural course held at the MOHAP Training and Development Center (TDC) – Sharjah, in November 2018.
