Welcome to the Society for Airway Management

The Society for Airway Management (SAM) was founded in 1995 as an international, multi-specialty, not-for-profit corporation. We provide an interdisciplinary forum for physicians and others interested in clinical airway management. Members are engaged in anesthesiology, emergency medicine, pulmonology, trauma care, head and neck surgery, EMT / paramedic care, and hail from two dozen countries all over the globe. Members are encouraged to become active by participating in committees, attending the annual meeting and contributing articles to our newsletter, The Airway Gazette.

E-mail based discussion service: We also offer an e-mail based discussion service where members discuss a variety of airway-related topics. To join, simply send e-mail to the Airway Discussion Forum Coordinator, at Bettina.schmitz@ttuhsc.edu
