Difficulty in airway management is the single most important cause of major anesthesia-related morbidity and mortality. Accordingly, anesthesiologists’ efforts have led to significant advances in airway management that exerted a beneficial influence on patient’s safety.

In the continuum of this endeavor to ensure patients’ airway-related safety, the Korean Journal of Anesthesiology will publish a special issue devoted to the topic of “Airway Management”. We welcome contributions that explore the advanced methods and innovative applications regarding the airway management including airway equipment, airway techniques and difficult airway. These include both clinical and experimental research papers as well as systematic review of literatures.

The deadline for submission is 30th June 2019.

Please submit your papers to the homepage of KJA (http://submit.ekja.org/submission/Login.html).

Papers are published upon acceptance, regardless of the Special issue publication date and Special issue will be launched on Issue Number 6 of KJA 2019.
