The intubating laryngeal mask airway.
T he laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is accepted as both a rescue ventilation and a primary airway management device in both the prehospital and emergency department environments. A modified version of the LMA, the intubating laryngeal mask airway (ILMA, LMA-Fastrach; Intavent Ltd, Reading, UK) exists, which, when combined with a modified tracheal tube, can be used for blind tracheal intubation. Th...
متن کاملComparison of the standard laryngeal mask airway and the ProSeal laryngeal mask airway in obese patients.
BACKGROUND The ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA) may have advantages over the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) in obese patients. We tested this hypothesis in a clinical setting. METHODS Sixty obese patients (BMI >30) were randomized to receive mechanical ventilation (tidal volume 7 ml kg(-1), PEEP 10 cm H(2)O), through either the PLMA or the LMA. A gastric tube was used in all patients. Cuff p...
متن کاملThe laryngeal mask airway and the emergency airway.
The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is an important new tool for managing the emergency airway. In a variety of emergency situations, the LMA may be considered instead of the face mask or the endotracheal tube. Furthermore, the LMA can be used as an aid to intubation and as a bridge to more secure means to control the airway. The primary risk with the LMA is aspiration of gastric contents. Anesthet...
متن کاملLimitation of Laryngeal Mask Airway Usage in Open-Neck Procedure
I read the manuscript entitled “Case Report of An Open Neck Procedure Complication Associated with Laryngeal Mask Airway Use” by Subramaniam T et al. This is a valuable manuscript describing iatrogenic complications during level-2 cervical lymph node biopsy, in which the airway is managed with laryngeal mask airway (LMA). During the procedure, the surgeon realized that the mass was actually the...
متن کاملEfficacy and safety of the laryngeal mask airway <Emphasis Type="Italic">vs </Emphasis> Guedel airway following tracheal extubation
Purpose: To compare the safety and efficacy of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) with the Guedel airway during the recovery period. Methods: In a prospective randomised trial in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), 52 patients (ASA I and 2) were randomised to receive either a laryngeal mask airway (LMA: n = 26) or a Guedel airway (n = 26) during the recovery period after middle ear surgery.
