5 Management Options for Severe Airway Problems

This lecture by intensive care paramedic Jeff Kenneally covers key airway management techniques for a patient with facial burns and airway compromise. Using a case study, Jeff explores the use of nebulised adrenaline, rapid sequence intubation (RSI) and delayed sequence intubation (DSI) for securing the airway in high-risk and uncooperative patients, the effectiveness of a bougie versus stylet, and indications for a surgical airway when intubation fails.
