Laryngeal Mask Airway Insertion

Introduction: Airway management is a crucial skill for the clinical anaesthesiologist. It is an integral part of general anesthesia, allowing ventilation and oxygenation as well as a mode for anesthetic gas delivery. The laryngeal mask airways (LMA) have become popular in airway management as a missing link between facemask and tracheal tube in terms of both anatomical position and degree of invasiveness. Haemodynamic stability is an important aspect to the anaesthesiologist for the benet of the patients especially during intubations, laryngeal mask insertion. Laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation can cause striking changes in Haemodynamics as result of intense stimulation of sympathetic nervous system. The aim of this study was to evaluate the hemodynamic changes between endotracheal intubation and laryngeal mask airway insertion. Material And Methods: This was a prospective observational study on 46 patients of ASA I-II status divided into 2 groups of 23 each. In the ETT (Endotracheal tube) group endotracheal intubation was done using Macintosh laryngoscope by using portex cuffed endotracheal while in LMA (Laryngeal mask airway) group laryngeal mask airway was inserted according to the standard recommendation. Heart rate, Systolic, Diastolic and Mean arterial pressure and dysrhythmias were monitored. Results: The two groups were comparable in terms of demographic data as there were no signicant differences between the 2 groups in terms of age, sex, duration of surgery, ASA grades and MPC classication. Heart rate (HR), Systolic blood pressure (SBP), Diastolic blood pressure(DBP), Mean arterial pressure (MAP) remains on higher side in ETT group than LMA group which was statistically signicant. P<0.05. Dysrhythmias were noted in 2 patients of ETT group while LMA group did not notice any dysrhythmias. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that there is a haemodynamic response consisting of an increase in Heart rate, SBP, DBP and MAP that comes with ETT insertion as well as with LMA insertion. However, the response caused by ETT insertion is signicantly greater than that caused by LMA insertion.

System Objective

Background Laryngeal mask airway insertion causes less changes of haemodynamic parameters. As haemodynamic changes during laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation as result of intense stimulation of sympathetic nerves system. Objective To find out the effective airway management by LMA during controlled ventilation, to avoid laryngoscopic and intubation induced haemodynamic changes and to avoid laryngospasm and bronchospasm. Method A total number of 100 patients ASA grade I & II were selected randomly as per inclusion and exclusion criteria in two groups. Fifty in each group. In group A used LMA and in group B used ETT during general anaesthesia in intermediate duration of gynaecological operation. Pulse,NIBP,SpO2 were recorded in perioperatively. Result Pulse, blood pressure were significant between the two groups (p<0.00) but in SpO2 was insignificant except in 2 min of intraoperative which was significant. (p<0.013). Conclusion LMA insertion causes less changes of haemodynamic parameters when compared with that of ET intubation. Our finding suggests that LMA can be safe and beneficial alternative to ETT.

Objective In 2015, Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) recommended laryngeal mask airway (LMA) as an alternative to the endotracheal tube (ETT) in situations where the provider is “unable to intubate and unable to ventilate.” LMA insertion is being taught in the NRP routinely. However, endotracheal intubation is the primary method considered as the standard of care in neonatal resuscitation. LMA insertion is a relatively simple procedure with an average insertion time of < 10 seconds. Newer generation LMA can have the added advantage of reducing the risk of aerosol generation and improving the safety of the providers. Only a few recent studies have evaluated the LMA insertion skills of neonatal resuscitation providers. We wanted to study the proficiency of NRP providers in the technique of LMA insertion. We hypothesized that NRP providers would have LMA insertion skills equivalent to the standard of care (ETT insertion). Study Design A manikin-based study was done from July 2019 to December 2019. We enrolled 31 NRP providers with 1 or more years since the first certification and current valid NRP provider/instructor status. The participants were instructed to insert an ETT and LMA in the manikin. The procedures were video recorded. The time taken to insert and start ventilation with each device, including the number of attempts for successful insertion, was noted. A Likert scale questionnaire was filled by each participant indicating the level of confidence, perception of ease, and the ability to provide effective positive pressure ventilation (PPV) with each of the procedures. The paired t-test, chi-square test, and Kruskal–Wallis' test were used for the statistical analysis. Results Eight (25.8%) out of the 31 participants failed to insert any one of the devices. So, 23 providers were analyzed for the outcomes. We found that the mean duration taken to insert the ETT and LMA was not statistically different (32 vs. 36 seconds). LMA insertion had a higher failure rate compared with ETT. Providers did not perceive confidence to insert LMA when compared with ETT. They did not recognize LMA insertion as a more effortless procedure relative to endotracheal intubation. The providers felt that their ability to provide effective PPV using LMA was inferior to ETT. Conclusion The NRP certified providers in this study did not demonstrate proficiency in the insertion of LMA equivalent to the endotracheal intubation. Key Points
