The book addresses various clinical scenarios in a user-friendly format that mimics the approach clinicians encounter at educational workshops. Sections address airway devices and techniques, awake intubation, algorithms of difficult airway management, pharmacologic adjuncts useful in airwaymanagement, equipment, preoxygenation, and patient positioning strategies to ensure effective airway management.
