Conditions for laryngeal mask airway placement in terms of oropharyngeal leak pressure: a comparison between blind insertion and laryngoscope-guided insertion. [PDF]
BackgroundInsertion under laryngoscopic guidance has been used to achieve ideal positioning of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA). However, to date, the efficacy of this technique has been evaluated only using fiberoptic evaluation, and the results have ...

We conducted a randomized, cross-over study of 20 paralyzed anesthetized adult patients to test the hypothesis that oropharyngeal leak pressure and cuff position (assessed fiberoptically) vary with head and neck position for the flexible (FLMA) and standard laryngeal mask airway (LMA).

With supraglottic airway devices, such as the laryngeal tube suction (LTS), ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA) and Cobra perilaryngeal airway (CobraPLA), oropharyngeal leak pressure or cuff position may vary according to changes in the position of the head and neck.
