CHAPTER 1 Airway Management

OVERALL BOTTOM LINE
Airway management is a vital life‐saving skill for the ICU provider.
The provider should be capable of using a broad range of devices including endotracheal tubes, supraglottic devices, and direct and video laryngoscopes.
Understanding airway anatomy, performing a thorough airway examination, and recognizing potential challenges of both bag‐mask ventilation as well as endotracheal intubation are essential
Formulating a plan (often with a backup in mind), proper monitoring, meticulous attention to patient positioning, and immediate availability of equipment and medications are necessary to provide safe and effective care.
It is crucial to know when to call for assistance, when to attempt a ‘rescue technique,’ and when escalation to invasive airway management (i.e. cricothyrotomy or tracheostomy) is necessary.
Functional anatomy of the upper airway
The human airway consists of two openings: the nose, which leads to the nasopharynx, and the mouth, which leads to the oropharynx. These passages are separated anteriorly by the palate and they join posteriorly, although still separated via an imaginary horizontal line extending posteriorly from the palate. Inferiorly past the base of the tongue, the epiglottis separates the oropharynx from the laryngopharynx, or hypopharynx. The epiglottis serves to protect against aspiration by covering the opening of the larynx (the glottis) during swallowing. The larynx is a cartilaginous skeleton comprised
