Airway management and ventilation are the
highest priorities in patient management. While this statement may seem
like an oversimplification, few situations more rapidly cause
disability and death than airway and breathing compromise. Maintaining
the airway and ensuring breathing are almost always the very first
considerations when treating emergency patients. Paramedic: Airway Management
is a comprehensive stand-alone program, which meets and exceeds the
airway management objectives as outlined in the 1998 U.S. Department of
Transportation Paramedic National Standard Curriculum.
