Airway Management in Covid 19 Patients

Abstract

Those who work with COVID-19 patients airways are especially vulnerable. We present an empirical bit-by-bit strategy in order to guard in-hospital airway treatment of individual along COVID-19 disease, whether they are suspected or confirmed. The COVID-19 patient's airway care raises the danger of HCW exposure. Challenging extubation takes more time and might even entail many treatments with both the possibility for aerosolization, therefore rigorous attention to personal protective equipment (PPE) regulations is required to keep clinicians safe. Whenever an patient's airway risk evaluation indicates that awake tracheal intubation is the best option, therapies that produce greater secretion aerosolization should have been prevented. For decrease the chances of hypoxemia, optimal preoxygenation with a tight sealed facial mask might well be conducted beforehand to initiation. AMBU Bag during initiation should be avoided unless the patient experiences O2 depletion. Patients must be fully sedated with complete muscular relaxation for such best intubating circumstances. As a first-line technique for airway management, video laryngoscopy be suggested. If urgent invasive airway access is available, we advocate using a surgical approach like scalpel bougie-tube instead of an aerosolizing producing treatment like transtracheal jet ventilation.
