SLIPA? may be more useful than other LMADs for difficult airway management

摘要

The SLIPA~(TM) a cuffless, hollow, boot-shaped, soft plastic supraglottic airway device (SLIPA; SLIPA Medical Ltd., London, UK), has advantages over other laryngeal mask airway devices (LMADs) because it provides better protection from regurgitation and has a better perilaryngeal seal However, SLIPA~(TM) has not been tested in difficult airways. We report successful management of a difficult airway with SLIPA~(TM) after laryngeal mask airway failure. We obtained the patient's written consent to publish this report.
