Managing Difficult Airway Cases
This chapter discusses the importance of waveform capnography in assessing mask ventilation and suggests using a supraglottic airway if ventilation is uncertain or difficult. It also covers considerations for using different airway devices and when to switch them, as well as appropriate timing for swapping out a device used for intubation in a cardiac arrest patient.
