| Description | Laryngeal mask airway represents a simple, effective and safe way to secure the airway during general anaesthesia. In the hands of an experienced anaesthesiologist, its insertion is safe even in different positions of a patient. LMA can be used for both spontaneous and positive pressure ventilation. The complication rate with LMA compared to standard tracheal intubation is not higher, and the complications appear to be less critical. |
