There is reasonable evidence for 'normal' checklists such as WHO and SURPASS. Gawande's group have recently published simulation evidence for intra-operative crises, but airway issues were not really addressed. There are many algorithms out there, such as the UK and US difficult airway, but I am interested in the evidence, if any, for whether emergency operating procedures are effective.

Good question; I too am only familiar with the various country / society algorithms. I've never seen evidence that specifically addresses the value of a D.A. checklist.

Thanks, Neal. I still haven't found anything despite looking quite hard.
