    AbstractNeonatal airway management comes with exclusive anatomical, physiological, and environmental complexities, and probably higher incidences of accidents and complications. No dedicated airway management guidelines were available until the recently published first joint guideline released by a task force supported by the European Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care and the British Journal of Anaesthesia and focused on airway management in children under 1 yr of age. The guideline offers a series of recommendations based on meticulous methodology including multiple Delphi rounds to complement the sparse and scarce available evidence. Getting back from Brobdingnag, the land of giants with many guidelines available, this guideline represents a foundational cornerstone in the land of Lilliput.Copyright © 2023 British Journal of Anaesthesia.
