Abstract

Tracking Difficult Airway algorithms helps to make an assessment and to plan an airway managent in a summarised way, in order to not forget any of its items.

"Non existence of a worldwide accepted algorithm in our days means these must be taken to the hospital where activity is in progress, to anyone´s skills, its devices and its patients." (Dr. M. Gómez Ríos).
