An Update on Airway Management Registry and Organization

Abstract

After an unexpected difficult intubation, management, documentation and sharing of relevant clinical information in the perioperative period may be useful to enhance the safety of the patient. The inclusion of these patients in a computerized hospital database, together with the creation of a visible information sheet, was proposed in 1992. Digital coded recognition, distribution and access to the digital data of the patient by different providers of health, and the registration of the patient in a medical alert base with a 24-hour access were also proposed as procedures to reduce the anesthetic morbidity and mortality related to the unexpected difficult intubation.
