The eole of LMA in the Airway Management

摘要

To keep the airway open, provide adequate ventilation, and maintain safe oxygenation in an anesthetized patient is a routine but challenging task. LMA can be used in the both normal (easy) airway and difficult airway.nThe use of the LMA has an advantage over ETT placement in order to avoid postoperative laryngeal swelling. In the normal airway, we routinely choose one of three airway devices (FM, LMA and ETT) for GA patient. The principles for choosing airway devices are effective, safe and minimize trauma (See Fig 1 and Fig2).
