Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Airway management is an essential clinical competency for all healthcare providers, and especially for anesthesiologists. Clinical settings for airway management include operating rooms and NORAs, and airway management practice can be very challenging when patients are under anatomical and physiological difficulties. Advancements in airway management are continuously evolving. During recent decades, innovations in concepts, tools, techniques, research, and guidelines of airway management have been noted. In particular, the roles of nasal endoscopy, airway ultrasound, video supraglottic airways, virtual endoscopy, video endoscopes, application of AR/VT, artificial intelligence and telemedicine have been investigated. Altogether, with all kinds of innovations of airway management practice, patient safety and care quality can be enhanced. In this Special Issue, we encourage all professionals to contribute in sharing their own clinical experiences, and express their perspectives on the challenging issue of airway management.
