    Abstract:

    Bilateral clefts of the palate pose difficult and unique problems in surgical rehabilitation. The premaxilla traditionally has been a controversial subject with a historic lack of uniformity in treatment protocol. Based on a review of facial growth and the evolution of premaxillary cleft surgery, principles of management and secondary reconstruction of the premaxilla are discussed. Timely surgical intervention combining osteotomies and bone grafting in conjunction with closure of soft tissue defects is shown to result in satisfactory functional and aesthetic results.

    Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation II: ACLS Airway Management

    Airway management is a key skill in emergency and critical care settings, as maintaining a clear airway is essential for adequate oxygenation and ventilation.Head Tilt-Chin Lift TechniqueThe head tilt-chin lift maneuver is an essential technique primarily used in patients without suspected cervical spine injuries. To perform this maneuver, one hand is placed on the patient’s forehead, and gentle pressure is applied backward to tilt the head. The fingertips of the other hand are positioned under...
