This article focuses on the specific anatomic differences in the pediatric patient when contrasted with the adult patient. An emergency physician must be familiar with these differences to provide the best emergency care. Because maintaining an adequate airway is so crucial to these patients, recognition of these differences in the infant and child may be a life-saving step.
