The pediatric airway and respiratory function differ from those in adults. Optimum management requires consideration of these differences, but the application of adult principles is usually sufficient to buy time in an emergency until specialist pediatric help is available. Simple airway opening techniques such as head tilt and jaw thrust are usually sufficient to open the child's airway, but there is now a range of equipment available to by pass supraglottic airway obstruction-the strengths and weaknesses of such devices are explored in this article. The role of endotracheal intubation is also discussed, along with the pros and cons of the use of cuffed endotracheal tubes in children, and methods of confirming tracheal placement of the tube.
