Abstract

In emergency situations the approach of the airways is crucial for the reduction of the hypoxemia and consequently of the neurological damages. In prehospital care, the advanced management of the airways is pointed out as one of the five research priorities in prehospital critical care. The management of the airways is the first intervention in emergency situations as one of the recommendations of Advanced Trauma Life Support. Endotracheal intubation is a procedure of choice for doctors. However, the use of the pocket-valve-mask is effectively evidenced by a new two-hand sealing technique. The objective of this study is to perform a review on the management of the airways in emergency situations.
