Tracheal Extubation With a Laryngeal Mask Airway and Exchange Catheter in a Patient With a Difficult Airway [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2013 To the Editor, Exchanging an endotracheal tube (ETT) for a supraglottic airway (SGA) has been described for smooth tracheal extubation and to help the patient avoid coughing at the time of emergence from anesthesia. This technique is also one of the three advanced extubation methods recommended by the Difficult Airway Society in their recent extubation
