A secure and patent airway is a prerequisite to safe interhospital transfer and this has traditionally been via endotracheal tubes. Neonatal intubation success rates are falling as there is declining opportunities amongst paediatric junior doctors and consultants, therefore being able to successfully intubate an infant before or during a transfer, especially if they have an airway anomaly, may be very challenging. The use of supraglottic airways is increasingly popular in neonatology as an alternative to facemask ventilation or endotracheal intubation. This review considers the role of supraglottic airway devices during the stabilisation and transfer of neonates.

Introduction: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is characterized by the cessation of mechanical cardiac activity and voluntary circulation occurring outside of a hospital setting, making it the leading cause of death worldwide. Recently, the optimal approach to airway management has been a subject of controversy.

In high-risk patients undergoing emergency tracheostomy, especially with advanced malignancies and comorbidities, vigilant monitoring and immediate management of complications like extensive subcutaneous emphysema are crucial. Prompt intervention and interdisciplinary collaboration are essential to optimize outcomes and effectively address severe postoperative issues.

Background: Difficult airway management (DAM) is a challenging aspect of anesthetic care. Although nearly all DAM episodes result in successful intubation, complications are common and clinical decision-making may be complex. In adults with anticipated DAM scheduled for nonemergent surgery, we prospectively observed clinical decisions made during DAM such as awake/sedated versus anesthetized, choice of initial and subsequent devices, case cancellation/postponement, conversions between awake and anesthetized approaches, and process complications such as multiple intubation/supraglottic airway (SGA) insertion attempts, difficult bag-mask ventilation (BMV), hypoxemia, and cardiovascular destabilization.

Introduction: Passive oxygenation with non-rebreather face mask (NRFM) has been used during cardiac arrest as an alternative to positive pressure ventilation (PPV) with bag-valve-mask (BVM) to minimize chest compression disruptions. A dual-channel pharyngeal oxygen delivery device (PODD) was created to open obstructed upper airways and provide oxygen at the glottic opening. It was hypothesized for this study that the PODD can deliver oxygen as efficiently as BVM or NRFM and oropharyngeal airway (OPA) in a cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) manikin model.
