"Airway management may be required for individuals in a variety of circumstances, ranging from simple choking to complicated airway obstruction. Airway obstruction most commonly occurs as a result of the tongue or foreign bodies blocking the airway. It can also be the result of injury to the airway, increased presence of blood and secretions (e.g., saliva and mucus), or inflammation of the airway. Specific clinical signs that may indicate the need for airway management include respiratory failure, reduced level of consciousness, rapid change in mental status, active choking, or penetrating trauma. Depending on the particular circumstance, various different types of airway management may be performed.
Advanced airway management techniques include the use of OPAs or NPAs, which may be used as supplementary techniques to maintain an open airway in deeply unconscious individuals. Both types of airway device will prevent the tongue from blocking the airway and provide adequate ventilation."
