The use of the laryngeal mask airway by nurses during cardiopulmonary resuscitation
Dr Baskett and the members of the Study Group (Anaesthesia 1994; 4 9 3-7) are to be congratulated on reporting their data about insertion of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) by ward nurses during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) prior to the arrival of

Hybrid technique had yielded improvements in restoring the mechanical alignment of lower limbs and realizing the optimal position of femoral and tibial components, which was not statistically different from MR and GB techniques, but superior to GP technique in maintaining the original height of joint line, which was similar to MR technique.

Comparison of the Baska and I-gel supraglottic airway devices: a randomized controlled study
BACKGROUND: Laryngeal masks are increasingly used in place of endotracheal intubation or face masks for maintaining the airway during surgery. OBJECTIVES: Compare the insertion time and other features of the Baska and I-gel masks in patients undergoing ...

An audit of the Single Use Portex Laryngeal Mask.
We performed an audit of the insertion of the Single Use Portex Laryngeal Mask in 400 patients. Insertion was successful at first attempt in 335 out of 400 patients (83.8%).

Re-evaluation of appropriate size of the laryngeal mask airway.
We have assessed 32 males and 31 females in a randomized, crossover study to see if there was any difference in the correct positioning of the laryngeal mask, optimal ventilation (defined as no gas leak around the mask at an airway pressure of 18 cm H2O)

In the past 25 years with the development of various supraglottic airway devices, the armamentarium for airway management has increased. In our study, the laryngeal mask airway (LMA)-ProSeal is compared with the LMA-Classic with respect to as follows: (a) Ease of insertion and number of insertion attempts, (b) Device positional stability and possible ...

Eliminating protein from reusable laryngeal mask airways
Summary Laryngeal mask airways (LMAs) have the potential to act as a vector for the transmission of prion diseases. This study was undertaken to define the problem of protein contamination and to investigate three alternative cleaning methods.

Depth of insertion of the ProSeal laryngeal mask airway.
BACKGROUND The depth of insertion of the ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA) is unknown. We measured depth of insertion in satisfactorily positioned PLMAs. METHODS All women received size 4 masks and men size 5 masks.
