Abstract
Paediatric airway brings some unique challenges to anaesthesiologist. Anaesthesiologists are at particularly high risk of being exposed to Covid cases because airway management, particularly tracheal intubation, positive pressure ventilation through a mask, and management of tracheostomy tubes, causes widespread aerosolization of the virus2.But these cases cannot be deferred. The aim of our presentation is to discuss the various challenges we faced managing these presumptive COVID positive pediatric airway cases , not only because of logistic issues but also to optimize the airway and work in a coordinated way with ENT surgeons in the common airway . We present the anaesthetic management of few challenging paediatric cases of tracheobronchial foreign body aspiration, Laryngeal web presenting with stridor, laryngeal papillomatosis during this period April 2020 to September 2021 in our institute.
