Efficacy 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. Ease...
متن کاملAwake tracheal intubation through the intubating laryngeal mask.
PURPOSE To report successful awake insertion of the intubating laryngeal mask (Fastrach) and subsequent tracheal intubation through it, in a patient with predicted difficult tracheal intubation, due to limited mouth opening, and difficult ventilation through a facemask, due to a large mass at the corner of the mouth. CLINICAL FEATURES A 53-yr-old woman with a large post-gangrenous mass on the...
متن کاملThe use of a modified intubating laryngeal mask endotracheal tube for tracheal resection and reconstruction.
To the Editor:-The optimal breathing tube for use during resection and reconstruction of proximal and midtracheal lesions should be a long, flexible, reinforced tube that can be manipulated easily during surgery without kinking.’ The tube should have a short, low-pressure, highvolume cuff and a very short segment beyond the cuff to allow bilateral lung ventilation through short tracheal stumps....
متن کاملTracheal granuloma 7 years after extubation
Tracheal granuloma can cause severe stenosis long after extubation. When a patient with a history of endobronchial intubation has an intratracheal tumour, we should consider the possibility of this condition.
متن کاملCricoid pressure impedes placement of the laryngeal mask airway and subsequent tracheal intubation through the mask.
We have studied 40 patients to see if cricoid pressure affects the success rate of ventilation through, and the position of, the laryngeal mask and subsequent fiberscope-aided tracheal intubation. Adequate ventilation of the lungs was produced through the laryngeal mask in 19 of 20 patients in the control group, but in only 10 of 20 patients in the cricoid pressure group (P < 0.002). The laryng...
