About the Webinar

Airway management in the ICU is critical for patients with respiratory failure, altered consciousness, or severe illness. Endotracheal intubation is the most common method, often performed using rapid sequence induction with appropriate sedation and neuromuscular blockade. Pre-oxygenation and continuous monitoring of oxygen saturation and hemodynamics are essential. Difficult airway algorithms and tools like video laryngoscopy enhance safety. In some cases, tracheostomy may be needed for prolonged ventilation. Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) can be an alternative in select patients. A multidisciplinary approach and adherence to airway safety protocols are vital to minimize complications and ensure optimal patient outcomes in critical care settings.
