Summary
Airway management and difficult endotracheal intubation in the pregnant woman require unique considerations that differ from other patient populations. While most pregnant women deliver without the need for airway management, difficulty with endotracheal intubation remains a source of maternal morbidity, maternal mortality and concern for obstetric anaesthesiologists.
