Ear, nose and throat emergencies are a diverse group of high-acuity conditions affecting all age groups, with the potential for rapid airway compromise. Successful management hinges on a multidisciplinary approach and an evidence-based airway management strategy. This review outlines contemporary approaches to important emergencies of the upper and lower airways, including the shift towards default videolaryngoscopy. It features updated strategies for managing critical conditions such as epiglottitis, deep neck space abscesses and paediatric airway obstruction, integrating new recommendations for oxygenation, human factors and the use of flexible bronchoscopy. The goal is to provide a robust framework for anaesthetists to optimize patient safety and outcomes.

Front of neck airway (FONA) plays a critical role in both elective and emergency airway management and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. This article reviews key anatomical considerations, indications for FONA, and the various techniques used to secure an airway via the anterior neck, including surgical, percutaneous and cricothyroidotomy approaches. It also addresses the management of tracheostomies and laryngectomies, emergency airway algorithms, ultrasound-guided identification of the cricothyroid membrane and complications such as expanding neck haematomas. With a focus on adult patients, the article aims to raise awareness, consolidate essential guidance and improve the safety profile of FONA through education, standardization of care and familiarity with emergency protocols.

Endoscopic upper airway surgery involves accessing the larynx, trachea and upper aerodigestive tract via rigid or flexible endoscopy. These procedures are often performed for diagnostic or therapeutic management of airway pathology, including benign and malignant lesions. Anaesthetic management presents distinct challenges due to the shared airway, the need for optimal surgical access and the elevated risk of complications such as airway obstruction, inadequate lung ventilation and airway fire. A thorough preoperative assessment is essential, including evaluation of pathology characteristics, airway patency and patient co-morbidities. Anaesthetic planning must involve multidisciplinary collaboration. Oxygenation strategies include closed systems (e.g. conventional ventilation via microlaryngeal and laser-resistant tracheal tubes) and open systems (e.g. jet ventilation, spontaneous or apnoeic oxygenation with high-flow nasal oxygen). Each has specific indications, limitations and safety considerations. Tracheal extubation may carry significant risk and should follow a structured, risk-based approach. This article provides an in-depth overview of anaesthetic considerations, techniques and safety strategies for endoscopic upper airway surgery, highlighting the importance of planning, teamwork and adaptability in managing complex airway scenarios.

Neonates possess unique pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics attributable to the developmental immaturity of their organ systems, enzymatic pathways and overall body composition. These attributes underscore the necessity for specialised expertise to ensure safe and effective drug administration in neonatal anaesthesia. Throughout the first year of postnatal development, rapid growth leads to substantial alterations in drug metabolism and pharmacological response. The variability observed in drug disposition and efficacy among neonates is primarily due to immature enzymatic function, progressive anatomical and physiological changes and pharmacogenomic factors. Post-menstrual age is a reasonable indicator for assessing the maturation of clearance pathways. Dosing strategies in neonatal anaesthesia must account for the distinctive physiological features of newborns, encompassing pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, susceptibility to adverse effects, and diverse disease states. Although current monitoring techniques, except for neuromuscular assessments, remain limited, advances in evaluating anaesthetic depth, sedation and pain management are anticipated to further improve safety and efficacy within this vulnerable population.

Local anaesthetics (LA) are weak bases consisting of a lipophilic aromatic ring linked to a hydrophilic tertiary amine by either an ester or amide bond. It is this chemical link that enables classification of the LA. They exist in solution as an equilibrium of ionized and unionized forms. The unionized form is free to diffuse across the axonal membrane, but it is the ionized form which then binds and blocks the intracellular portion of the voltage-gated sodium channel, preventing sodium influx and nerve transmission. Neuronal activity and nerve fibre diameter determine neuronal sensitivity; whereas pKa, lipid solubility, protein binding and inherent vasomotor activity affect the pharmacological properties of the LA. LAs can be administered by a variety of methods depending on clinical requirement including topical, local infiltration, intravenous and neuraxial and peripheral nerve blockade. While generally safe, the toxic effects of LAs can have wide-ranging effects including methaemoglobinaemia and systemic toxicity. The effects of ion trapping, stereoisomers, and additives have significant clinical consequences and require special consideration.

Hypertensive disorders are among the most common complications of pregnancy, affecting 8–10% of all pregnancies. They include gestational hypertension, pre-eclampsia and eclampsia, as well as pregnant patients with pre-existing chronic hypertension. Over the last 70 years, there has been marked decline in maternal mortality associated with hypertension.
The development of pre-eclampsia and eclampsia is mediated by the placenta, and results in a widespread inflammatory response with consequent endothelial dysfunction and thus both multisystem maternal organ dysfunction and uteroplacental failure. The identification of patients at risk and the early diagnosis and therefore treatment of patients who develop pre-eclampsia can be life-saving to both mother and fetus.
A patient with a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy presents specific considerations for the obstetric anaesthetist around timing and mechanism of delivery, including the implications for delivery of both regional and general anaesthesia. The most unwell patients may need to be managed in a critical care environment. These considerations all require a strong multidisciplinary approach involving anaesthetics, critical care, obstetrics, and paediatrics.

The transition from intrauterine to extrauterine life represents a complex physiological process, requiring rapid, coordinated adaptation across all major organ systems in a specific, sequential and interdependent fashion. This transition begins with abrupt and dramatic changes in organ function, followed by a more gradual phase of maturation. The success of this process depends on both structural maturity and precise timing.
This article offers a clear and concise overview of the key physiological adaptations required for extrauterine life, outlining the major changes in each organ system and highlighting their intricate interplay. Additionally, it touches on the challenges of preterm birth, where the critical developmental preparations of the third trimester of gestation are disrupted, leaving preterm infants particularly vulnerable during the immediate postnatal period.

Premature and ex-premature infants represent a particularly high-risk group in anaesthetic practice due to ongoing physiological immaturity, limited physiological reserve and a heightened susceptibility to perioperative complications. While advances in neonatal care have significantly improved survival rates among extremely preterm neonates, this has resulted in an increasing number of vulnerable infants requiring anaesthesia for surgical and diagnostic procedures during early infancy. These patients exhibit altered pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immature organ systems that necessitate a highly individualized approach to perioperative management.
Postmenstrual age (PMA) remains a key determinant of anaesthetic risk, particularly in relation to apnoea of prematurity and the potential neurodevelopmental effects of anaesthetic exposure. Common surgical indications in this population, such as necrotizing enterocolitis, patent ductus arteriosus and retinopathy of prematurity, present unique anaesthetic challenges requiring specialized strategies.
This review provides a comprehensive, system-based and perioperative phase-oriented guide to anaesthesia in the premature and ex-premature infant. It emphasizes the importance of preoperative optimization, intraoperative vigilance and meticulous postoperative monitoring within specialist centres. Multidisciplinary collaboration is essential to reduce perioperative morbidity and optimize outcomes in this vulnerable cohort.

Neonatal resuscitation can feel daunting to the anaesthetist as it differs to all other forms of resuscitation due to the physiological changes which occur at birth. Although not routine, anaesthetic input may be required in those cases requiring resuscitation, and here we aim to familiarize anaesthetists with the principles and guidance for neonatal resuscitation in the UK.
