Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2019
Airway management is a cornerstone of anesthetic practice, and difficulty with airway management has potentially grave implications-failure to secure a patent airway can result in hypoxic brain injury or death in a matter of minutes. The difficult airway in otolaryngologic surgery requires careful planning and close communication between the ...

Extubation of the Difficult Airway
Journal of Intensive Care Medicine, 2011Managing the airway in the intensive care unit (ICU) is complicated by a wide array of physiologic factors. Difficult airway may be a consequence of patient’s anatomy or airway edema developed during the ICU stay and mechanical ventilation. The incidence of failed airways and of cardiac arrest related to airway instrumentation in the ICU is much ...

Airway management: the difficult airway
Trauma, 2000Maintenance of a patent airway to allow ventilation with high concentration oxygen is an essential procedure during the resuscitation of all trauma patients. A range of equipment is available to help achieve and maintain a clear airway, with endotracheal intubation remaining the gold standard.

Causes of the Difficult Airway
Atlas of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics, 2010Recognizing a potentially difficult airway is important in avoiding a life-threatening emergency. There are 2 separate scenarios for considering the difficult airway: difficult mask ventilation (DMV) and difficult tracheal intubation (DTI). DMV can be described as lacking the ability to maintain oxygen saturation or lacking the ability to reverse signs

Airway management is unequivocally the most important responsibility of the emergency physician. No matter how prepared for the task, no matter what technologies are utilized, there will be cases that are difficult. The most important part of success in the management of a difficult airway is preparation. When the patient is encountered, it is too late

Techniques for the difficult airway
Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2013Management of the difficult airway is associated with significant morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. An increasing array of advanced airway tools are available, but appropriate selection and application in the ICU remains poorly defined.Difficult airway incidence during emergent intubation is 10%, but complications of ICU airway ...

The difficult airway can be challenging to deal with in any setting. In resource-poor environments pathologies are often advanced, specialist equipment may be absent and trained assistance may be lacking, adding to the challenge. The chapter offers practical advice on assessment, planning, and management of difficult airways under these circumstances ...

The Difficult Airway Redefined
Prehospital and Disaster Medicine, 2022AbstractThere is no all-encompassing or universally accepted definition of the difficult airway, and it has traditionally been approached as a problem chiefly rooted in anesthesiology. However, with airway obstruction reported as the second leading cause of mortality on the battlefield and first-pass success (FPS) rates for out-of-hospital endotracheal

Identification of the difficult airway
Anaesthesia & Intensive Care Medicine, 2005Abstract Nearly all patients who are seriously difficult to manage are easily identified because they have grossly obvious abnormalities. Conversely, it is difficult to identify the few normal-looking patients that are difficult to manage.

Management of the Difficult Airway
Pediatric Emergency Care, 2023Airway management is a fundamental component of care during resuscitation of critically ill and injured children. In addition to predicted anatomic and physiologic differences in children compared with adults, certain conditions can predict potential difficulty during pediatric airway management. This review presents approaches to identifying pediatric
