Strategies to reduce the risk of unrecognised oesophageal intubation: a survey of Difficult Airway Society members

The authors suggest it is now time for the Royal College of Anaesthetists, DAS, and the General Medical Council to mandate strategies to reduce the risk of unrecognised oesophageal intubation.
