I have several different versions of this airway guide. When I first cracked this edition open I noted that there were many more authors than the earlier editions. The chapters are in a very odd order, rather than starting with BLS and moving forward, it jumps all over the place.The information in this text is solid, the visuals and especially the tables are quite handy. The best thing about the newest edition is that they have a section on how they came up with the particular theory, or where they obtained the studies, which allows one to go back and look at the original work.Overall a must have for anyone who finds themselves managing an airway in an emergency. A little watered down from some of the earlier versions, but still packed with info, and much more up to date. Also printed on that glossy type textbook paper, which makes reading it harder, due to the glare. I wish they hadn't changed that from the earlier texts.

Excellent for trainees. I used this right after reading "Anyone can intubate 5th ed" and combined with the high number of urgent/emergent intubations in my fellowship, I learned to respect the airway while feeling comfortable dealing with it!

Emergency Medicine resident checking in, honestly a must read if you manage airways. I read it during my month on anesthesia and it transformed my experience from just haphazardly observing and learning to having a good understanding of the technique and a game plan of what I was trying to accomplish before I went in. The text is not overly complex either and is manageable in to go through in 1 month going through a little bit here and there. The book formats to the kindle app for the larger ipads and desktop which is what I primarily read it on.

The airway is a single portion of the care of a critically ill patient or an operative candidate but is arguably the most significant and critical to get right the very first time. No book will be able to place the skill of doing that in your hands, but this book will give you exactly the amount of background information you need to learn how.This should be a requisite text if you are in a position to manage an airway - emergently or otherwise. It covers all the algorithms from the difficult airway course developed by Dr Walls, which provides a methodical plan in dealing with basic intubation to the "Can't Oxygenate, Can't Ventilate" disasters.I don't hesitate recommending this book to anyone interested in airway management - from prehospital providers to physicians. For those who are involved in training for anesthesia or emergency medicine, it shouldn't even be an option to not read it.The current edition built on previous with a more significant presence of video laryngoscopy and some finessing of the airway algorithms. The rest of the text remains very solid without any significant weaknesses.Again, I can't recommend this book highly enough - it does exactly what it needs to do to be a fixture in learning airway management.

This book is informative and I highly recommend for anyone in the medical field. Even if you are not the team member this is actually performing the intubation I think anyone involved in the car of someone with an airway, so everyone, should read this book. Everyone in the medical field, wether your a nurse, medic, pa, md, np, emt , should have some idea of the airway, the risks, the procedures, the pitfalls and the options to follow when things go to s***.Advanced education never hurt anyone, as long as you stay within your scope.

Of the highest caliber and greatest of authorities on advanced, emergent airway management. Yet another essential addition to the library of any provider of advanced emergency medicine.An appropriately desired must-have

This book explains airway management in a very practical way. I learned a lot about the paramedic level and beyond from this book!

Comprehensive yet accessible. Up to date compendium on all aspects of emergency airway management--anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, process and all "evidence-based" I keep it on hand when on duty in the ED and refer to it often when not
