Peer review:

Lead section:

- There is a lack of citations in the lead section of the article.

Content:

-Content is relevant, up to date to the topic.

-Treatment of conscious airway obstruction heading should be larger to denote the separation of ideas

-Citations needed for cough, chest thrust, finger sweep section

Tone and balance:

-Neutral tone throughout, appears unbiased towards any particular stance. Multiple viewpoints are represented fairly.

Organization:

- The lead article summarizes the information in the body of the article well but does not mirror the organization of the article.

Images and media:

- Appropriate for topic and well captioned.

- Adding a picture of an airway adjunct would further enhance the article Hdnguy35 ( talk) 13:37, 18 March 2024 (UTC) reply

I plan to rework this article pretty extensively. Some of things I would like to change include. Fixing grammatical errors, adding information, adding references and citations from texts books, changing some refrences from primary sources to secondary sources, expounding on some concepts, adding sections for basic airway management equipment, and reorganizing the paragraphs to better represent the overall information. I look forward to working with you. - Brownoms ( talk) 02:02, 2 March 2024 (UTC) reply

@Jacona I was wondering why you rolled back the changes I made in the lead and finger sweep sections as well as removing the citation? It more accurately reflects the concepts presented. The majority of the content in the finger sweep section also did not have citations and I could not find any that supported the information. Brownoms ( talk) 17:58, 20 March 2024 (UTC) reply
