The LMA (Laryngeal Mask Airway) is an advanced medical device for airway management, designed for use in medical procedures and surgeries, allowing for safe ventilation without the need for tracheal intubation.
Technical characteristics:
- Made of soft and flexible medical silicone – to reduce irritation and provide maximum comfort.
- Inflatable balloon for securing an accurate position – ensures a good seal and prevents air leaks.
- Compatible for use with ventilation and anesthesia systems – to maintain proper ventilation during medical procedures.
- Available in different sizes – suitable for adults, children, and infants.
- Intended for single-use or multiple-use (depending on the model) – sterile and suitable for various procedures.
- Easy and quick insertion – reduces complications related to direct intubation.
Characteristics and Form of Use:
Used for managing the airway in general anesthesia, resuscitation, intensive care, and medical procedures, it provides a safe and effective ventilation solution, with less trauma compared to an endotracheal tube (ETT).
Relevant fields of activity and professionals:
Anesthesiologists, surgeons in operating rooms, intensive care teams, paramedics, and advanced EMTs who need a device for fast, safe, and reliable airway management during medical procedures and resuscitation.
