    AbstractThis article describes an airway management system designed to reduce the incidence of maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity during cesarean section. This system was developed from a comprehensive topical review of the literature and implemented in a midwestern community hospital. The key features of the system include a strategy of early assessment and recognition of patients at risk for difficult intubation, and the establishment of management protocols designed to reduce the maternal risk associated with failed intubation.
