Sažetak

Child and adult patients with upper airway obstruction or breathing impossibility represent a challenge in the daily work of a paediatrician, anaesthesiologist and otorhinolaryngologist. Such situations represent life threatening states. There are various causes to such states. Most often we deal with loss of consciousness, trauma consequences often accompanied by abundant bleeding, tumour presence in the upper airway, allergy reaction or foreign body presence in the upper airway. Besides the here mentioned, patient ventilation disorders can occur during general anaesthesia performance due to difficult or impossible patient intubation.
Besides invasive techniques such as conicotomy and tracheotomy, which are applied with threatened patients in airway examination, today we also have at our disposal various non-invasive techniques. In such cases, besides the use of endotraecheal intubation and assisted ventilation, the laryngeal mask can be used, esophagotracheal tubus and laryngoscope for the front throat commissure with rubber bougie. The recommended sequence of procedures can be used as a good guideline in threatened patient management.
