| Discipline: | Pediatrics | | Subject Definition: | Airway Obstruction-Surgery; Anesthesia; Child | | NLM Class: | WS 280 | | LC Class: | RD139 | | Abstract: | The management of pediatric airway disorders has seen tremendous progress in surgical techniques and advancements over the past 30 years. From the introduction of novel endoscopic instrumentation, to improved open airway reconstructive techniques, the evolution of surgical approaches to improve outcomes in children with airway pathology has been substantial. Undoubtedly, many of these advances in surgical techniques have been fueled by dramatic refinements in optimal anesthetic management of children undergoing surgery in their airway. Written forboth the pediatric anesthesiologist as well as the pediatric otolaryngology surgeon,Contemporary Anesthetic Management for the Pediatric Airwaycombines the salient aspects of both specialities and describes the ideal and safe management of the pediatric patient undergoing anesthesia for difficult airway scenarios.This state of the art book covers topics such assubglottic stenosis, pharyngeal airway obstruction, laryngeal airway obstruction, obesity and sleep apnea, thoracic airway obstruction, among others. To date, there is no other book like it that focuses primarily on the anesthetic management of children with these pathologies, yet often the anestheisologist's level of expertise in these scenarios is as critical (if not more important than) the surgeons. The scenarios described are those where the skills and expertise of both specialists are being continually tested. The use of newer drugs and the combination of smaller amounts of different types of sedatives while avoiding intra-op narcotics and maintaining spontaneous ventilation are described in detail. Additionally, how older drugs are being re-purposed and newer guidelines describing the usage of drugs to safeguard the airway in pediatric patients with critical airways is covered as well. Finally, a comprehensive review of new research emerging about ultra-rapid narcotics metabolizers among patients, making them more susceptible to medications, such as codeine, along with the latest information on the purported potential neurodevelopmental toxicity of some anesthetic agents are also included. |
