Ross AK et al. – The authors describe the ‘RAW’ approach (Ready, Able, Willing) and list five phases of airway management in which equipment is used. These are: facemask ventilation with adjuncts, airway clearance with suction or foreign body removal, use of supraglottic airway devices, tracheal intubation with a variety of laryngoscopes including the flexible fibre–optic bronchoscope and subglottic management using cricothyroidotomy or tracheostomy. Tracheal tubes and aids for placement are described.
