Abstract
The article "Difficult Airway, Rapid Sequence Intubation, and Respiratory Failure" discusses the complexities of managing airways in patients experiencing respiratory failure, particularly when rapid sequence intubation (RSI) is necessary. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing both anatomical and physiological challenges that can complicate airway management. The article highlights the need for thorough assessment and preparation to mitigate risks associated with difficult airways and RSI. It also explores various strategies and techniques to enhance the safety and effectiveness of intubation in critically ill patients.
Keywords: Difficult airway, rapid sequence intubation, respiratory failure, airway management, pre-intubation assessment, sedation, paralytic protocols, rescue devices.
