Background: We developed a prototype minimum data set (MDS) for English care homes, assessing feasibility of extracting data directly from digital care records (DCRs) with linkage to health and social care data.
Methods: Through stakeholder development workshops, literature reviews, surveys and public consultation, we developed an aspirational MDS. We identified ways to extract this from existing sources, including DCRs and routine health and social care datasets.

Introduction: Endotracheal intubation can be difficult or even fail under certain patient and anaesthesiologist conditions.

Thus, an anaesthesiologist's vision is restricted and grip on the equipment less sure.
