Comparison of the use of the laryngeal mask and face mask by inexperienced personnel.

چکیده
Ten junior doctors with no postgraduate anaesthetic experience attempted to ventilate the lungs of 50 anaesthetized patients, using either a laryngeal mask or a Guedel airway and face mask. Success was defined as the production of two successive tidal volumes exceeding 800 ml within 40 s. The failure rate was significantly greater using the laryngeal mask compared with the face mask (P < 0.05) and the average time was significantly longer with the laryngeal mask than with the face mask (P < 0.01). The results from this investigation suggest the laryngeal mask airway cannot be recommended as a resuscitation device for use by inexperienced operators.

Case Report of an open Neck Procedure Complication Associated with Laryngeal Mask Airway Use
Introduction: The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is a safe method to establish airway control during general anaesthesia. In otolaryngology surgery, the use of a LMA is well established in ear surgery; however, the use of a LMA during open neck procedures remains controversial. We report a case in which the pharyngeal distortion by the LMA cuff resulted in an iatrogenic complication. Case Report...

Aim and background: Tracheal intubation remains the choice method for keeping airways open during mechanical ventilation. Among the various methods, standard method of direct laryngoscopy generally used by non-skilled staff increases the risk of failure. This study was performed to evaluate and compare the results of tracheal intubation using laryngeal masks vs. glidescope led by novice personn...
