Popis: Control of a compromised airway is part of basic care of patients with ventilatory requirements. The emergency management of such situations requires knowledge of simple (Guedel-type) airways, nasopharyngeal tubes, endotracheal intubation, and laryngeal mask airways. Practical aspects of these three approaches are covered in this chapter.
