Abstract

This is a case report of a pediatric patient with a difficult airway, in which several airway adjuncts were used simultaneously to successfully provide adequate oxygenation and ventilation during cardiac arrest. Difficult airways are low-incidence, high-risk emergencies in children, and airway adjuncts may be used infrequently, let alone in combination. Included in the discussion of this case are a description of each airway adjunct and a discussion of the process needed to incorporate airway adjuncts safely and effectively into patient care.
