HealthDay News — For patients with out-of- hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), 72-hour survival is better with initial laryngeal tube (LT) insertion compared to endotracheal intubation (ETI), while ...

The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) has emerged as a pivotal tool in neonatal resuscitation, providing a less invasive alternative to traditional endotracheal intubation. Its design facilitates rapid ...

Premature infants are subjected to adverse effects of intubation to benefit from surfactant. We hypothesized that administration of surfactant through a laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is as effective ...

The LMA causes significantly less stimulation of the airway than laryngoscopy followed by tracheal intubation. However, due to the low-pressure seal, aspiration of gastric contents may occur when ...

It also allows for intubation with ETTs up to 7.5 mm to provide a safe and effective option for airway replacement. Potential uses for the new LMA Protector™ Airway include: ...
