Since its inception a variety of techniques to achieve ATI have emerged and there have been accompanying advancements in pharmaceuticals and technology to support the procedure. In recent years there has been a growing focus on the planning, training and human factors involved in performing the procedure. The practice of ATI, does however, remain low around 1% to 2% of all intubations despite an increase in those with head and neck pathology. ATI, therefore, presents a skill that is key for the safety of patients but may not be practised with regularity by many anesthetists. In this article we therefore aim to highlight relevant guidance, recent literature and provide an update on the practical methods fundamental for successful ATI. We also discuss the crucial aspects of a safe airway culture and how this can help to embed training and maintenance of skills.</p>","PeriodicalId":46852,"journal":{"name":"INTERNATIONAL ANESTHESIOLOGY CLINICS","volume":"62 4","pages":"59-71"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142134161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
