Advanced airway management are a set of invasive medical procedures preformed in order to create an open pathway between a patient’s lungs and the outside world. This is accomplished by clearing or preventing obstructions of airways, often referred to as choking, cause by the tongue, the airways them self, foreign bodies or materials from the body it self, such as blood or aspiration. Unlike basic airway management such as head-tilt or jaw-thrust maneuver, advanced airway management relies on the use of medical equipment and special training. Invasive airway management can be performed "blind" or with visualization of the glottis e.g. by the use of a laryngoscope. In roughly increasing order of invasiveness are the use of supraglottic devices such as oropharyngeal or nasopharyngeal airways, followed by infraglottic techniques such as tracheal intubation and finally surgical methods. Advanced airway management is a primary consideration in cardiopulmonary resuscitation, anaesthesia, emergency medicine and intensive care medicine. ==Removal of foreign objects== In advanced airway management foreign objects are either removed by suction or with e.g. a Magill forceps under inspection of the airway with a laryngoscope or bronchoscope. If removal is not possible surgical methods should be considered. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Advanced airway management」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
