Canada

Taken from curatorial worksheet (reference 1): “Three “Gudel oral airways, which lived in my pocket during the mission and may have seen use (sanitized as needed).” Dr Bryant. It was standard operating procedure for a member of the MSF medical team to be on board the first rhib (rigid-hull inflatable boat) to assess the condition of the people in distress, and to provide immediate assistance if needed. A few important medical items were carried in a small backpack, including these three oral airways in a range of sizes. They are used to keep an unconscious or semi-conscious person’s tongue from obstructing breathing. One of 8 items obtained by Canadian Dr. Simon Bryant while on tour for Medecins Sans Frontier (MSF) on the M.Y. Phoenix (http://blogs.msf.org/en/staff/blogs/moving-stories/bringing-home-the-rescue-zone). In 2015 MSF Canada has been active in the migrant crisis on the Mediterranean. Dr. Simon Bryant was one of the doctors who did a tour in August 2015. I asked for Dr. Bryant to collect items that reflected the MSF experience and mission.
