Williams' Airway Management Theory

Williams' Airway Management Theory emphasizes the importance of maintaining a clear, open airway for effective breathing and patient safety. It highlights the need to assess the airway continuously, recognize signs of obstruction early, and choose appropriate interventions—such as positioning, airway adjuncts, or advanced techniques—to keep the airway open. The theory advocates a systematic approach to airway management, prioritizing quick, appropriate responses to ensure oxygen delivery and prevent airway compromise in emergency or clinical situations. It serves as a guide for healthcare providers to make informed decisions and act promptly to maintain airway patency.
