Successful prehospital airway management relies on the optimized combination of basic, advanced, and rescue airway interventions. EMS medical directors must choose strategies appropriate for the needs of their systems based on available personnel, resources, and environment. An exclusive focus on any one management technique will limit the clinicians’ abilities to adapt to difficult situations and failed procedures. Ideally, prehospital personnel should have a predefined algorithm to rapidly shift between management techniques to achieve successful airway management.
