Use of a Tracheal Tube as a Nasally Inserted Supraglottic Airway in a Case of Near-Fatal Airway Obstruction Caused by Epiglottitis

Case Reports in Anesthesiology, 2019
Airway management is critical during near-fatal obstruction of the upper airway in epiglottitis; however, this is challenging because of the sitting posture and agitated mental status of the patient.

Upper Airway Obstruction

Apollo Medicine, 2005
General management guidelines For upper airway obstruction: (Do & Dont’s) • Child nursed in parent’s lap. • Avoid/minimise noxious stimulus. Do not – Inspect the orapharynx/Laryngoscopy – Send to radiology for X-ray – Insert IV line/take ABG • Humidified oxygen should be administered in non threatening manner (flow by O2) • In severe conditions ...
