Laryngeal mask placement in a teaching institution: analysis of difficult placements

2015-04-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> : Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) placement is now considered a common airway management practice. Although there are many studies which focus on various airway techniques, research regarding difficult LMA placement is limited, particularly for anesthesiologist trainees. In our retrospective analysis we tried to identify predictive factors of difficult LMA placement in an academic training progra...
