33. Anatomically Difficult Airway Part 1

Critical Care Time Podcast
About this episode

On this week’s episode of Critical Care Time, Nick & Cyrus return to talk about airway management in the ICU. In season 1 we focused on the physiologically difficult airway. Now we will begin to unravel the anatomically difficult airway. Today we will break things down by covering foundational concepts, discussing some of the physical and cognitive tools you can use to address an airway, and basically set the stage for part II where we will go through some case studies and leave you with our pitfall and pearls for anatomically difficult airways. This episode is packed with clinical pearls that will empower you to take on even the  spiciest  of airways!

As always - give us a watch or a listen and let us know what you think! Don’t forget those    reviews!!
