- * The study focused on creating a set of expert guidelines for managing difficult airways in critically ill adults, specifically those with physiologically challenging conditions like obesity and pregnancy.
- * An international group of airway management specialists used the Delphi method, which involved multiple rounds of surveys, to achieve consensus on 53 out of 61 proposed statements regarding best practices.
- * Key recommendations included forming a robust intubation team, using videolaryngoscopy, optimizing patient conditions before intubation, and carefully monitoring the patient's status post-intubation to improve overall outcomes.
