AB  - A  newborn  with  small  bowel  obstruction  is  taken  to  the  operating  room  for  an  exploratory  laparotomy.  You  are  called  to  assist  with  a  potentially  difficult  airway.  Initial  assessment  of  the  newborn  demonstrates  a  “small  chin”  and  obvious  signs  of  respiratory  distress  including  tachypnea  and  upper  airway  obstruction.  The  baby's  oxygen  saturation  is  91%  in  the  supine  position.  The  primary  anesthesia  practitioner  suggests  an  “awake”  intubation  in  light  of  the  potential  for  aspiration  and  high  likelihood  of  a  difficult  airway.  What  are  your  concerns  and  how  would  you  manage  this  child's  airway?
