==Airway Consult (ED to Anesthesia)==
* After evaluation of an airway in the ED, you may feel the airway is best handled by anesthesia or taken to the OR (angioedema, epiglottitis, know stenosis, mass, previously documented difficult airway, etc)
** Call the anesthesiologist running the board (x65942) and request an airway consult (please do not use the words "airway backup")
*** Call the trauma surgeon (x66882) if you feel they need to be taken to the OR emergently and/or potentially need a surgical airway
** The anesthesiologist will come to the ED to evaluate the airway and discuss a care plan with the ED attending
*** If the patient is stable, you can request the ED resident participates in the intubation attempt, but once you have relinquished management of the airway, it is up to the anesthesiology attending how to optimally manage the airway.

==What Does the Airway Management Team Respond To==
The airway management team is responsible FOR THE AIRWAY ONLY and will respond to:
#All Airway Management Team Pages
#All Code Blues (If already intubated - please check tube placement)
#Code Whites:  anesthesia responds to all Code Whites (Pediatrics may reach out to anesthesia directly as well);  if someone accidentally calls for the airway management team on a day the ED is on, we will respond but hand off to the anesthesia team when they arrive.
