Fibreoptic Assisted Endotracheal Intubation

What I tried to add the original video clip for the anaesthetic management for this patient, but I cannot do it, may be the size of the original one is so large that it will never happen in the blogger, so i did try to repost it with the utilisation of my not smart phone.

You have to differentiate the plan in airway management especially the expected difficult airway, when the plan is organised for a known difficult airway, the scene will be smooth as silk if the essential airway devices are in position and ready to be used. In the other way round, the unexpected difficult airway is usually problematic and can induce a chaos if you cannot help ventilate your patient 's lungs. In this video, the patient was an employee of the Electricity Generating authority, when he was injured, it caused him scar contracture which can reduce the airway motion and create a difficult airway to challenge anaethetist in charge of him.

Can't help with the quality of the clip, but it is better than nothing...
