Airway management algorithm in the intensive care unit. * The availability of equipment for management of a difficult airway is checked; ** During the whole procedure, the patient should be ventilated in case of desaturation < 80 %. In case of inadequate ventilation and unsuccessful intubation, emergency non-invasive airway ventilation (supra-glottic airway) must be used. RSI: rapid sequence induction.
