| description | Abstract Ultrasound has increasingly growing applications in anesthesia. This procedure has proven to be a novel, non-invasive and simple technique for the upper airway management, proving to be a useful tool, not only in the operating room but also in the intensive care unit and emergency department. Indeed, over the years mounting evidence has showed an increasing role of ultrasound in airway management. In this review, the authors will discuss the importance of ultrasound in the airway preoperative assessment as a way of detecting signs of difficult intubation or to define the type and/or size of the endotracheal tube as well as to help airway procedures such as endotracheal intubation, cricothyrotomy, percutaneous tracheal intubation, retrograde intubation as well as the criteria for extubation. |
