Airway Management - Supraglottic Airway Devices
Cursul Na]ional de Ghiduri [i Protocoale în ATI As anesthesiologists we spend a respectable part of our career maintaining the airway. Theoretically, every anesthesiologist should be familiar with, and well practiced in a variety of the airway techniques that are available, so that when an airway problem occurs, it can be managed with a solid armamentarium of information and experience. However...
متن کاملInfluence of cuff volume on oropharyngeal leak pressure and fibreoptic position with the laryngeal mask airway.
We studied the size 4 laryngeal mask airway (LMA) to test the hypothesis that oropharyngeal leak pressure and fibreoptic position improves with increasing cuff volume. After LMA insertion, 50 anaesthetized adult patients had the cuff inflated in 5-ml increments to 40 ml. Oropharyngeal leak pressure was optimal at 15 ml and decreased at higher volumes. The fibreoptic position was optimal at 0-20...
متن کاملSupraglottic airway devices.
Supraglottic airway devices are developed with increasing frequency following the overwhelming success of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA). Currently, the LMA, the ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA), the laryngeal tube (LT), the laryngeal tube with integrated suctioning tube (LTS) and the oesophageal tracheal combitube (OTC) are the best evaluated and most widespread devices. Both the LMA and ...
متن کاملSupraglottic airway devices.
Supraglottic airway devices (SADs) are used to keep the upper airway open to provide unobstructed ventilation. Early (first-generation) SADs rapidly replaced endotracheal intubation and face masks in > 40% of general anesthesia cases due to their versatility and ease of use. Second-generation devices have further improved efficacy and utility by incorporating design changes. Individual second-g...
متن کاملCadaver study of oesophageal insufflation with supraglottic airway devices during positive pressure ventilation in an obstructed airway.
BACKGROUND Supraglottic airway devices (SADs) play an increasing role in airway management in clinical anaesthesia and emergency medicine. Until now, no data exist concerning the extent of oesophageal insufflation when oropharyngeal leak pressures are exceeded. METHODS Laryngeal masks LMA-Supreme™ and LMA-ProSeal™, laryngeal tubes LTS-D and LTS II, Combitube™, and I-Gel were inserted into unf...
