 [AL1]@Semler, Matthew W Should we include sites/invesitgators from all prior airway trials? I’ve listed investigators/authors from DEVICE and PREOXI here.

 [MS2]I think we should probably include: INSPIRE, ANGLE, BREATHE, RSI, DEVICE, PREOXI, BOUGIE, and PREPARE II…and we should NOT include trials before that (PREPARE, PREVENT, CHECK-up, fellow)

 [AL4]Add to jpg folder

 [MS5]Syd and Grace – we will rely on your list of participating sites and investigators to make sure we have the right list going on the website.  Will aim to update this every January.

 [AL6]@Nguyen, Michele @Lagalante, Sydney V Ensure that anyone listed here is on our PCCRG Master Contact List.xlsx . There are several prior trial investigators missing (PREOXI, DEVICE)

 [LS7]add BOUGIE and PREPARE II Investigators

 [AL8]Which trial did they participate in?

 [LS9]WAVE

 [NM10]Our Lady of the Lake went through a rebranding and is now FMOL Health: Our Lady of the Lake. They would like this to be reflected on the PCCRG website.

 [AL11]Which trial did they participate in?

 [LS12]WAVE!

 [LS13]PREPARE II

 [LS14]Noting that we will wait to add EXPRESS until we are closer to enrollment

 [MS15]Agree.
