Brief Summary  

Face mask ventilation is considered the most basic technique for maintaining patency of airway in unconscious and apneic patients. It is the rescue method of ventilation in difficult intubation.

In routine practice of general anaesthesia, we test the ability to ventilate the patient (check ventilation) before giving neuromuscular blocking drugs for tracheal intubation to avoid cannot intubate- cannot ventilate scenario. 
The administration of neuromuscular blocking agent Vecuronium could result in increased ease of face mask ventilation.
