 Otaining a patent secured airway in a trauma pt whether inside a vehicle or 
outside of a vehicle is paramount.  I have intubated pt's inside of vehicles 
with severly compramised airways. It does however take  education and 
practical training in some of the techniques.  The airway  has to be 
maintained by whatever means that is required, ie positioning or intubation 
ect.  Should our entrapped pt's not recieve proper airway management just 
because the procedure is more difficult? Airway  management is crucial 
wherever the pt is.
