Fibreoptic guided intubation after i.v induction,paralysis & IPPV awake with sedation Blind nasal intubation- awake post induction and paralysis Light wand guided Retrograde intubation tracheostomy
Airway management choices
A clinical situation in which a conventionally trained anaesthesiologist experiences difficulty with mask ventilation, difficulty with tracheal intubation or both
Difficult airway:
It is not possible for unassisted anaesthesiologist to maintain the SpO2 > 90% using 100% O2 and positive pressure mask ventilation in a patient whose SpO2 was > 90% before
or It is not possible for the unassisted
anaesthesiologist to prevent or reverse signs of inadequate ventilation during mask ventilation
Difficult mask ventilation
Difficult laryngoscopy It is not possibe to see any portion of the
vocal cords after multiple attempts at conventional laryngoscopy
Difficult tracheal intubation A clinical situation in which intubation
requires more than three attempts or ten minutes using conventional laryngoscopic techniques
Performance by a reasonably experienced laryngoscopist
The use of the optimal sniffing position The use of OELM One change in length/type of blade
Optimal laryngoscopy attempt
History Specific tests for assessment
◦ Difficult mask ventilation

Airway Management, Jonathan Benumof
Thyromental distance (Patil test) Distance from the tip of thyroid cartilage to
the tip of mandible Neck fully extended Minimal acceptable value – 6.5 cmSignificance Negative result – the larynx is reasonably
anterior to the base of tongue Very low sensitivity-20%
Mandibular space
Modification to improve the accuracy Ratio of height to thyromental distance
(RHTMD) Useful bedside screening test RHTMD < 25 or 23.5 – very sensitive
predictor of difficult laryngoscopy
Sternomental Distance (Savva Test) >12.5cm
Patient is asked to hold the head erect, facing directly to the front maximal head extension angle traversed by the occlusal surface of upper teeth
Grade I : > 35° Grade II : 22-34° Grade III : 12-21° Grade IV : < 12°
Evaluation of Neck Mobility
Placing one finger on the patient’s chin One finger on the occipital protuberance
Result Finger on chin higher than one on occiput
normal cervical spine mobility Level fingers moderate limitation Finger on the chin lower than the second
severe limitation
Angle traversed by the vertex or forehead > 90° from max flexion to max extension is a specific +ve test for atlanto-occipital joint.
Class A: able to protrude the lower incisors anterior to the upper incisors
Class B: lower incisors just reach the margin of upper incisors
Class C: lower incisors cannot reach the margin of upper incisors
Significance Class B and C: difficult laryngoscopy
Mandibular Protrusion Test
Class I: Lower incisors can bite the upper lip above vermilion line
Class II: can bite the upper lip below vermilion line Class III: can not bite the upper lip

What are the options?
Flexible fibrescope guided Blind nasotracheal Rigid fibrescope guided Trachlight / light wand guided ILMA guided Other SGA guided Retrograde intubation Direct laryngoscopy
Supine sniffing position
Guided by breath sound or capnography
Lubricated tube Patent nare Gently advance
Blind nasotracheal intubation
Five response positions: •Position T (Trachea): Goal position! Breath sound +; tube advances, patient coughs
•Position A (Anterior): breath sounds+; the tube stops , and the patient coughs
•Response A:withdrawal and re-advance; neck gradually flexed
•Position L or R (Left or Right pyriform sinus): breath sounds STOP, unable to advance tube, NO coughing; tube may be palpable on one side of the neck.
•Response L or R: slight withdrawal till breath sounds resume; slow rotation of head to opposite side and re-advance.
Position E (Esophagus): Breath sounds STOP, tube advances, NO coughing.
Response E: withdrawing until breath sounds resume and then :1. Extend patient's head and re-advance.
2. Largely inflate cuff, advance tube until resistance is felt, maintain some advancing pressure on tube while cuff is slowly deflated.
3. Apply posterior pressure on the larynx and re-advance tube.
4. Leave one ETT inside esophagus to block it and insert another ETT to intubate the trachea.

Paediatric, obstetric patients & patients with upper a/w obstruction excluded
Flow charts based on series of plans Careful planning with backup plans Maintenance of oxygenation takes priority Seek the best assistance available
DAS guidelines(Anaesthesia.2004.59)
• Complete explanation of the reason for performing the airway nerve blocks, is essential
• Consider (a) an alternative plan, i.e the direct spray of LA or
spray with a nebulizer (b) the time available (c) the patient's condition
• Use of appropriate sedation to maintain patient comfort
• These techniques should be practiced in nonemergency situations so that when their success is required for a difficult intubation they can be performed appropriately
Points to be considered prior to the performance of airway blocks

Available Lidocaine Preparations
Preparation Dose
Injectable/topical solution 1% , 2%,4%
Viscous solution 1%, 2%
Ointment 2%,5%
Aerosol 10%
• Amount of LA absorbed varies• Systemic absorption of topically applied lidocaine is
limited• 5 mcg/ ml , toxic limit of blood lidocaine• Chinn and colleagues found plasma lidocaine levels of
0.44 μg/mL after inhalation of 400 mg of nebulized lidocaine
• Baughman and associates found that patients breathing 4 mg/kg aerosolized lidocaine developed plasma levels of less than 0.5 μg/mL
• Oral lidocaine produced even lower plasma levels
because much of the dose is swallowed & subjected to first-pass metabolism by the liver
• Swallowed lidocaine in the setting of topical airway anesthesia can cause nausea and vomiting
Systemic Absorption and Toxicity
• Lidocaine applied directly to the trachea and bronchi results in higher plasma levels
• Viegas and Stoelting found plasma levels of 1.7 μg/mL 9 minutes after tracheal installation of 2 mg/kg lidocaine
• Sutherland and Williams in their study found that despite a total dose of lidocaine (5.3 ± 2.1 mg/kg), the mean peak arterial plasma lidocaine concentration was low (0.6 ± 2.1 μg/mL)
• Gargling of large volumes (0.3 mL/kg) of 2% lidocaine may be associated with peak lidocaine concentrations approaching a potentially toxic level
Systemic Absorption and Toxicity
Total dose of lidocaine should be limited to 8.2 mg/kg in adult pts
Take extra care in elderly & pts with liver, cardiac impairment
Minimum amount of lidocaine necessary should be used when installed through FOB

If air is aspirated, needle needs to be withdrawn
If blood is aspirated, it is arterial (carotid artery), the needle is too posterior and too lateral. It needs to be redirected medially
Clinical Tips

Superior laryngeal nerve block- thyroid cornu as landmark
• Caution not to insert the needle into the thyroid cartilage, injection of LA into vocal cords cause edema
• If air is aspirated, the needie pierced laryngeal mucosa & to be retrieved
• If blood is aspirated (superior laryngeal artery or vein), needle to be redirected more anteriorly
• For evaluation of vocal cord movement, only the internal laryngeal nerve needs to be blocked
• For awake intubation, SLN and RLN need to be blocked
Clinical tips

Translaryngeal injection Spray as you go Labat’s technique
Trachea and vocal cords
Cricothyroid membrane
Technique of transcricoid injection
Transcricoid injection
• Pt needs to be informed that the injection of LA solution make him or her cough
• Contraindicated in patients with unstable neck
• During the block, pt should not talk, swallow, or cough
• Catheter left in place until the intubation is completed for injecting more LA if necessary& to decrease the likelihood of subcutaneous emphysema
Clinical tips
Non invasive Useful in pts at risk of aspiration Injecting LA through suction port of FOB Wait 30- 60 sec before advancing to deeper
structure and repeat the maneuver Two methods
oxygen spray techniqueCatheter technique
“Spray as you go”
Attach three-way stopcock to suction port Connect oxygen tubing with flow@2-4 l /min Through other port of 3 way inject LA Advantages
high Fio2 deliveryclean lensdisperse mucous awayaids innabulizing LA
Oxygen spray technique
Pass a angiographic or epidural catheter into suction port of FOB
Till it project 5 mm beyond FOB lens Inject LA through proximal connection Allows accurate placement of LA
Catheter technique
Safe, non invasive technique Useful in pts with unstable neck, ↑IOP &ICP Needs pt’s cooperation 5ml of 4% lidocaine @oxygen flow of
6L/min, ultrosonic nebulizer over 10- 15 min period
