The right answer is to insert a laryngial mask

The laryngeal mask is a material intended for the ventilation of patient in anesthesia. Its indication includes short-term interventions (less than two hours) without modification of the operative position and allowing immediate access to the head in order to achieve a traditional intubation if the need arises. The patient must be fasting and present no risk of inhalation.

<span>In infants with cleft lip and palate, nasal mask is not possible since air leakage will happen through the cleft defect. A modified positive airway pressure must be applied, then, to save the baby. A suctioning may be required, but one must be careful enough when inserting the catheter into the mouth. Putting a cardiac monitor and pulse oximeter helps to check the baby’s condition. </span>

1. Why are essential proteins so important to a healthy diet?<span>
Proteins are a “macronutrient” (just like carbohydrates and fat), which means that your body needs a large amount of them in order to stay healthy. A healthy diet requires a balance between the macronutrients and the “micronutrients” (such as vitamins and minerals, which the body needs in smaller amounts). </span>

2. How does the body use protein?<span>
The body uses proteins to: create and repair tissues; build enzymes, chemicals, and hormones; every cell in your body is in fact made up of proteins; and it is also the building block of bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, and blood.</span>

3. List at least three features shared by the various popular diet plans discussed in this section.<span>
Since I don’t know which diet plans you’ve discussed, I’ll just list some the most common features that most healthy diet plans have in common: a good balance of nutrients, prefer organic food rather than ready/frozen food filled with chemicals and preservatives, and add a healthy lifestyle.</span>

<span>4. Name and describe a category of vegetarianism.
</span><span>A branch of vegetarianism is Veganism. A vegan does not eat any products that derive from animals, for example: milk, cheese, butter, eggs, etc. as a step forward to vegetarianism which simply cuts meat and fish out of the diet. Vegans though need to replace those nutrients from products that are organic a non-animal-derivate such as soy, for example.  </span>
