What are the Alternatives to the Jaw Thrust Maneuver?
If the jaw thrust maneuver is not effective or feasible, alternative airway management techniques include: - The head-tilt/chin-lift maneuver, which is generally avoided in cases of suspected cervical spine injury. - Use of airway adjuncts such as oropharyngeal or nasopharyngeal airways. - Advanced airway techniques like intubation or the use of a laryngeal mask airway (LMA) by trained personnel.
