A technique for maintenance of airway access in infants with a difficult airway following tracheal extubation PAEDIATRIC ANAESTHESIA Hammer, G. B., Funck, N., Rosenthal, D. N., Feinstein, J. A. 2001; 11 (5): 622-625
Abstract
Tracheal extubation of patients with a difficult airway represents a challenge to anaesthesiologists and intensive care physicians. While a variety of techniques designed to maintain access to the airway in case of the need for tracheal reintubation have been described in adults, no reports have been published in infants and young children. We describe an approach to this issue in a young child with severe micrognathia.
