The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) tills a niche between the face mask and tracheal tube in terms of both anatomic position and degree of invasiveness. The LMA is a supraglottic device, and its placement is theoretically unaffected by upper airway and facial anatomy. Once inserted into the hypopharynx, there is direct access to the glottis without loss of

Journal of Clinical Anesthesia, 1992
The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is a new concept in airway management. A miniature inflatable mask is positioned in the hypopharynx, forming a low-pressure seal around the laryngeal inlet. The mask is attached via a tube to the breathing circuit. It is inserted after induction of anesthesia without the need for muscle relaxants or laryngoscopy. The LMA

Laryngeal mask airway and the difficult airway
Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2004To present recent advances in the role of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) and its newer modifications in the management of difficult airway.The principles of management of a difficult airway remain the same, but the advent of the intubating LMA (ILMA) and Proseal LMA (PLMA) has provided a better choice in such situations.

The Laryngeal Mask Airway at Altitude
The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2008The Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) is an accepted adjunct for airway management in emergency patients. There are a number of case reports describing its use in transport medicine for infant to adult patients, including during flight. Although studies of the effect altitude has on air-filled tracheal tubes exists, we were unable to find documentation of ...

The ProSeal laryngeal mask airway
Anesthesiology Clinics of North America, 2002The ProSeal LMA is a major advance over the Classic LMA because of the following reasons: it allows ventilation at much higher airway pressures; it protects the lungs from aspiration and the stomach from gastric insufflation; it facilitates passage of a gastric tube and monitoring devices into the esophagus; it can be inserted like the Classic or ...

Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway
Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2002The Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway (ILMA) was introduced into clinical practice in 1997 following numerous clinical trials involving 1110 patients. The success rate of blind intubation via the device after two attempts is 88% in “routine” cases. Successful intubation in a variety of difficult airway scenarios, including awake intubation, has been ...

The laryngeal mask airway in resuscitation
Resuscitation, 1994Previous work has shown that insertion of the laryngeal mask airway is a skill that is easily taught to inexperienced operators. In this study we have assessed the ability of non-anaesthetists to maintain an airway in a paralysed, anaesthetised patient in the controlled setting of an anaesthetic room.
