Need for Emergency Surgical Airway Reduced by a Comprehensive Difficult Airway Program
Anesthesia & Analgesia, 11/24/09
Berkow LC et al. – A comprehensive difficult airway program was associated with a reduction in the number of emergency surgical airway procedures performed for the inability of an anesthesiologist to intubate and ventilate, a reduction that was sustained over an 11–yr period. This decrease occurred despite an increase in the number of patients reported to have a difficult airway and an overall increase in the total number of patients receiving anesthesia per year.
