Emergency Medicine Airway Registry Ireland Preliminary Report

Launched with the Model of Care in September, the Emergency Medicine Airway Registry Ireland Preliminary Report comprehensive report on emergency intubation practices, patient outcomes and benchmarking across Irish hospitals.

The aim of the Emergency Medicine Airways Registry Ireland (EMARI) is to assess the practice of endotracheal intubation in Irish EDs. This will provide a local, regional and national overview of emergency airway management to audit and therefore improve the quality of care delivered to continuously improve patient outcomes. The airway registry will allow for the assessment of standards at a national level, with the additional benefit of enhancing national clinical guidelines.

NCCA and NOCA have confirmed support for the implementation of the Emergency Medicine Airway Registry of Ireland audit in 2025 and Zita McCrea (zitamccrea@noca.ie) has been appointed as project manager.
