AB Airway  support  is  necessary  in  many  acutely  ill  and  injured  patients.  Optimal  strategies  assist  with  airway  patency,  oxygen  delivery,  and  carbon  dioxide  excretion.  Many  classify  airway  management  techniques  into  two  categories:  noninvasive  (passive  oxygenation,  bag-valve-mask  ventilation,  and  noninvasive  positive-pressure  ventilation)  and  invasive  (supraglottic  airways,  endotracheal  intubation,  cricothyroidotomy,  transcutaneous  needle  jet  ventilation,  and  tracheostomy).  This  chapter  discusses  noninvasive  airway  management  strategies  and  supraglottic  airways.  Detailed  discussion  of  invasive  airway  management  strategies  is  found  in  Chapter  29A  (“Tracheal  Intubation”),  Chapter  30  (“Surgical  Airways”),  and  Chapter  113  (“Intubation  and  Ventilation  in  Infants  and  Children”).
