Difficult airway consultation service for children: steps to implement and preliminary results.
The article demonstrates how to implement a consultative service focusing on difficult airway (DAW) identification, management and education. The initial 3-month experience confirmed that a majority of pediatric DAW events are associated with congenital or acquired abnormalities. Through appropriate consultation and leadership, the Difficult Airway Service was able to physically and electronically identify pediatric patients with a DAW and provide management.
