Description
Readers will discover a clinically focused, abundantly illustrated guide to relevant anatomy, as well as the latest tools and proven techniques in the field.

Successful airway management demands strict attention to anatomic detail and the ability to tailor management strategies to each patientโ€™s illness and presentation.

Coverage of new and emerging techniques includes material on noninvasive ventilation and high-frequency jet ventilation.
  • Clinical orientation of the text emphasizes practical approaches over theory.
  • Concise presentation and abundant lists make key facts easy to find and retain.
  • Lavishly illustrated design includes high-quality color photographs and drawings to help readers better identify key anatomic features.
