摘要
We report the management of failed intubation in a critically ill, hypoxic and catabolic patient with sepsis and acute lung injury. Insertion of a laryngeal mask airway restored ventilation and corrected hypoxia. As the laryngeal mask provides only a temporary airway, it was essential to secure the airway by percutaneous tracheostomy to initiate mechanical ventilation.
