AB  - The  emergency  department  receives  a  call  from  the  emergency  medical  services  (EMS)  about  a  burn  victim  coming  to  your  facility  in  about  5  minutes.  In  an  attempt  to  take  his  own  life,  a  40-year-old  man,  while  locked  inside  his  vehicle,  set  himself  on  fire  with  gasoline.  The  patient's  arrival  at  hospital  was  delayed  due  to  a  prolonged  extrication  and  transport  time  of  about  1  hour.  He  had  significant  burns  to  the  anterior  trunk,  thighs,  head,  and  neck.  The  EMS  personnel  advise  that  a  difficult  airway  ought  to  be  anticipated.
