Laryngeal mask airway insertion anaesthesia and insertion techniques.
Laryngeal Mask Airway has gained wide acceptance for routine airway management, difficult airway and in emergency situations. The classical method of insertion was recommended by Dr Brain. Over the years various induction and insertion techniques have been described with variable results. Combination of induction agents with narcotics, with or without small dose muscle relaxants has been found ...
متن کاملHemodynamic responses to insertion of the laryngeal mask airway versus Combitube
Introduction: One of the most common problems during laryngoscopy involves sympathetic system stimulation and the subsequent hemodynamic changes. It is a key measure to maintain the hemodynamic stability of patients with cardiovascular diseases during induction of anesthesia. This study attempted to compare the hemodynamic effects of laryngeal mask airway and combitube. Methods: This prospec...
متن کاملComparison of propofol and sevoflurane for laryngeal mask airway insertion.
In this study, we compared haemodynamic changes, laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion time, and complications in patients anesthetized by inhalation of sevoflurane with those of intravenous induction with propofol. One hundred patients, aged between 20-40 years were enrolled in this study. Group 1 received propofol (2.5 mg/kg i.v.) and group 2 received sevoflurane (6%+50% N2O+50% O2) by inhala...
متن کاملRotational vs. standard smooth laryngeal mask airway insertion in adults.
OBJECTIVE To compare the ease of insertion between rotational laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion and Brain's LMA insertion technique in terms of number of LMA insertion attempts, time duration of LMA insertion and complications: trauma, laryngospasm, and hypoxaemia. STUDY DESIGN Randomized control study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY The Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, from Septembe...
متن کاملInsertion techniques of the laryngeal mask airway: a literature review.
This article is based on a literature review comparing insertion techniques of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA). I will be looking at the manufacturer's recommended technique and identifying alternative methods, adapted for ease of use, patient comfort or individual circumstances. Risks associated with LMA use will be identified and examples given of research carried out to limit these risks.
