What are the Techniques for Managing Difficult Intubation?
Several techniques can be employed to manage difficult intubation:
Awake Intubation: Performed under local anesthesia with the patient awake. Fiberoptic Intubation: Uses a flexible scope to visualize and guide the tube. Rapid Sequence Intubation (RSI): Quick induction of anesthesia and muscle relaxation.
Choosing the appropriate technique depends on the patient's condition and the clinician's expertise.
