Klinischer Einsatz der ProSeal®-Kehlkopfmaske bei Säuglingen, Kindern und Jugendlichen

Abstract: This survey demonstrates that the PLMA can be used effectively in infants, children and adolescents in the routine university clinical practice setting. However, this study does not confirm the extremely high success and low complication rates reported in controlled studies. The results support the assumption that with the PLMA regurgitated gastric fluid can be drained away from the larynx through the drain tube.

“…The low incidence of pediatric laryngeal mask insertion failure in our study is consistent with prior literature, confirming its use as an airway management device during general anesthesia. [ 5 7 8 9 ] Despite this, the serious nature of adverse airway events is a risk the anesthesiologists must put in mind, and factors associated with increased failure risk are identified by our study. As we did not record cases of failed insertion we compared the success of trial insertion from the first attempt with the second trial of insertion.…”
