This reference offers guidance to proper diagnosis and management of airway difficulties. Four distinct sections cover the anatomy and pathology of the airway; evaluation of the airway; securing the airway; and managing specific airway problems. State-of-the-art clinical discussions of trauma, infection, tumours, congenital abnormalities, and cardiac and pulmonary-related problems - plus the anatomy and physiology of the condition - guide readers to the safest and most effective care possible. Coverage of the latest airway management techniques guarantees less patient stress and helps secure optimal results. Over 55 experts - many of whom are specialists at Massachusetts General Hospital - lend their mastery to text material. Chapter coverage includes: airway sound transmission analysis; when an intubation attempt fails; lasers and the airway; and the burned airway.
Part 1 Introduction: functional anatomy of the airway; airway pathology. Part 2 Evaluating the airway: radiology of the upper airway; pulmonary function tests to evaluate the airway; bedside evaluation of the paediatric airway; rigid and flexible bronchoscopy; acoustic response measurements of the airway; airway sound transmission analysis. Part 3 Securing the airway: managing the airway outside of the operating room; cricothyrotomy and tracheostomy; overview of the intubation process; endotracheal tubes; rigid laryngoscopes; pharmacologic aids; the basics of awake intubation; oral intubation techniques; the nasal approach to intubation; the prediction of a difficult intubation; the failed intubation - maximizing successful management of the patient with a compromised or potentially compromised airway; the laryngeal mask and perioperative airway management; fiberoptic laryngoscopes; the role of fiberoptic bronchoscopy in thoracic anaesthesia; teaching fiberoptic laryngoscopy and intubation; complications of endotracheal intubation; extubation following anaesthesia and surgery.
