- Airway management in caesarean delivery: Describe mode of airway management including choice of airway devices and intubation technique. Detail recognition and management of the difficult airway, and describe an algorithmic approach. Specify the risks of aspiration and upper airway obstruction at extubation in caesarean delivery.
