One Lung is a simulation and practical skills course specifically designed for anaesthetists, surgeons, nurses and anaesthesia practitioners wishing to learn about lung isolation, single lung ventilation and the management of common thoracic anaesthetic and surgical emergencies. The course has been designed by a group of thoracic experts from across the UK and has been running at UCLH since 2017. We split the day into two parts: in the morning, we hold skills workshops to learn techniques and knowledge for lung isolation.
