As surgical techniques continuing advancing for management of head and neck disease, strategies for management of obstructive sleep apnea, treatment of head and neck pain, and utilization of artificial intelligence are being developed. We will explore important considerations to optimize patient outcomes and clinical understanding involving these evolving concepts.

House Officers, Medical Students, Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists, Other Healthcare Professionals, Physicians
In the fields of:
Anesthesiology, Emergency Medicine, Critical Care Medicine, Otolaryngology, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Dentistry
Learning Objectives
At the end of this activity, participants will be able to:
- Critically evaluate complex clinical scenarios in head and neck anesthesiology and surgery to refine approaches to airway risk assessment and perioperative airway management.
- Demonstrate effective interdisciplinary communication strategies to enhance coordination and decision-making in the care of difficult airway patients.
- Appraise current and emerging evidence to optimize outcomes in head and neck and advanced airway procedures.
- Design and implement advanced strategies for oxygenation and ventilation in patients with anatomically challenging airways.
