Airway management of angioedema patients during the COVID-19 pandemicKey points
Importance: The COVID-19 pandemic is characterized by high transmissibility from patients with prolonged minimally- or asymptomatic periods, with a particularly increased risk of spread during aerosol-generating procedures, including endotracheal intubation. Observations: All patients presenting wit...
