Clinicians unaccustomed to dealing with children tend to approach pediatric airway problems with a disproportionate amount of fear. This chapter deals with new techniques of pediatric airway management, with particular emphasis on lightwand endotracheal intubation, the laryngeal mask airway, and the cuffed oral pharyngeal airway.
