The single most critical intervention in acute care medicine is airway management. The need crosses all specialty lines though it is most integral to the disciplines of accident and emergency medicine, critical care medicine, and anaesthesia. All physicians are trained to handle acute airway events, and hospital-based physicians must have a special knowledge of airway management procedures. This book is well referenced, and bases all airway management procedures on current standards of practice. The book serves as both a valuable reference text and as a practical manual for use within the clinical setting. It has been written to provide acute care physicians with management procedures for the first 30-60 minutes of airway closure, and most chapters conclude with guidance for the prehospital management of airway emergencies. The book is intended for accident and emergency physicians and for anaesthetists.
