Abstract Background : Pre-hospital emergency airway management plays an important role in pre-hospital care. Laryngeal masks are increasingly employed for the airway management of pre-hospital critical patients and have achieved promising results. Although several randomized controlled trials have reported benefits, the efficacy of laryngeal masks in pre-hospital emergency airway management compared to endotracheal intubation have not been systematically reviewed. Methods: Electronic databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, Scopus and CNKI) were searched up to April 2019 for related randomized studies. Outcome indicators included overall intubation success rates, the success rates of the first intubation, insertion time, ventilation efficiency rates, SpO2 rise time, the blood gas index and adverse events. Two investigators selected the trials, extracted the data according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and assessed the quality of the literature according to the Jada score. The meta-analysis was performed using stata14.0 software. Results: We included 31 human studies. Compared to endotracheal intubation, the application of laryngeal mask for pre-hospital emergencies enhanced the ventilation efficiency rates [RR=1.20, 95% CI (1.06, 1.35), P<0.001], improved the success of first intubation [RR=1.29, 95% CI (1.18, 1.40), P<0.001] and the patients’ blood gas index, shortened the insertion and SpO2 rise times [SMD=-3.48, 95% CI (-4.17, -2.80), P < 0.001; -2.19, 95% CI (-3.06, -1.32), P < 0.001] and reduced the incidence of adverse events [RR=0.41, 95% CI (0.30, 0.57, P<0.001]. All results were stable and statistically significant. Conclusions: Laryngeal masks could quickly and effectively improve patient ventilation in pre-hospital emergencies, highlighting its utility for clinical application.

BackgroundEndotracheal intubation (ETI) is the gold standard for the out-of-hospital emergency airway management in severely injured patients. Due to time-critical circumstances, poor patient presentation and hostile environments, it may be prone for mechanical complications and failure.MethodsIn a retrospective study (January 2011 to December 2013), all patients who underwent out-of-hospital ETI before admittance to a level 1 trauma center were analyzed consecutively. Patients with supraglottic airways, being under cardiopulmonary resuscitation and interfacility transports were excluded. The main study endpoint was the incidence of unrecognized tube malposition; secondary endpoints were Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) and in-hospital mortality adjusted to on-scene Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), Injury Severity Score (ISS), Abbreviated Injury Scale head (AIS head), and on-scene time.ResultsOut of 1176 patients, 151 underwent out-of-hospital ETI. At hospital admission, tube malpositions were recognized in nine patients (5.9%). Accidental and unrecognized esophageal intubation was detected in five patients (3.3%) and bronchial intubation in four patients (2.7%). Although ISS (p=0.053), AIS head (p=0.469), on-scene GCS (p=0.151), on-scene time (p=0.530), GOS (p=0.748) and in-hospital mortality (p=0.431) were similar compared with correctly positioned ETI tubes, three esophageal intubation patients died due to hypoxemic complications.DiscussionIn our study sample, out-of-hospital emergency ETI in severely injured patients was associated with a considerable tube misplacement rate. For safety, increased compliance to consequently use available technologies (eg, capnography, video laryngoscopy) for emergency ETI should be warranted.Level of evidenceLevel of Evidence IIA.

Abstract Background Pre-hospital emergency airway management plays an important role in pre-hospital care. Laryngeal masks are increasingly employed for the airway management of pre-hospital critical patients and have achieved promising results. Although several randomized controlled trials have reported benefits, the efficacy of laryngeal masks in pre-hospital emergency airway management compared to endotracheal intubation have not been systematically reviewed.Methods Electronic databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, Scopus and CNKI) were searched up to April 2019 for related randomized studies. Outcome indicators were overall intubation success rates, success rates of the initial intubation, insertion time, ventilation efficiency rates, SpO2 rise time and blood gas index. Two investigators selected the trials, extracted the data according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and assessed the quality of the literature according to the Jada score. The meta-analysis was performed using stata14.0 software.Results We included 9 randomized manikin studies and 31 human studies. Meta-analysis of the manikin studies showed that the overall intubation success rates of the laryngeal mask group [RR=1.10, 95% CI (1.02, 1.18), P<0.05] and the success rates of first intubation [RR=1.25, 95% CI (1.01, 1.55), P <0.05] were significantly higher than the endotracheal intubation group. The insertion time of the laryngeal mask group was also significantly shorter [SMD = -1.53, 95% CI (-1.88, -1.17), P <0.05]. In human studies, excluding the success rates of first intubation and insertion time, the laryngeal mask was superior to endotracheal intubation and improved the patients’ blood gas index and shortened the SpO2 rise time. All the results were statistically significant.Conclusions Compared to endotracheal intubation, laryngeal masks could quickly and effectively improve patient ventilation in pre-hospital emergencies, highlighting its utility for clinical application .
