AbstractTracheal intubation is used when a clear airway is difficult to achieve with a face mask or laryngeal mask, or if there is a risk of dislodgement of other forms of airway control. Tracheal intubation is considered to be an important part of patient management when a major intraoperative complication develops (for example anaphylaxis, massive haemorrhage or malignant hyperpyrexia).
