Emergency front-of-neck access in pediatric anesthesia: A narrative review.
Paediatric Anaesthesia 2024 March 12
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Children undergoing airway management during general anesthesia may experience airway complications resulting in a rare but life-threatening situation known as "Can't Intubate, Can't Oxygenate". This situation requires immediate recognition, advanced airway management, and ultimately emergency front-of-neck access. The absence of standardized procedures, lack of readily available equipment, inadequate knowledge, and training often lead to failed emergency front-of-neck access, resulting in catastrophic outcomes. In this narrative review, we examined the latest evidence on emergency front-of-neck access in children.
METHODS: A comprehensive literature was performed the use of emergency front-of-neck access (eFONA) in infants and children.
RESULTS: Eighty-six papers were deemed relevant by abstract. Finally, eight studies regarding the eFONA technique and simulations in animal models were included. For all articles, their primary and secondary outcomes, their specific animal model, the experimental design, the target participants, and the equipment were reported.
CONCLUSION: Based on the available evidence, we propose a general approach to the eFONA technique and a guide for implementing local protocols and training. Additionally, we introduce the application of innovative tools such as 3D models, ultrasound, and artificial intelligence, which can improve the precision, safety, and training of this rare but critical procedure.
