Paediatric Anaesthesia, 08/06/09
Ungern–Sternberg BSV et al. – This study demonstrates that LMAs, particularly when using small–sized LMAs or LMAs with a more rigid PVC surface, need to be deflated following insertion of the device rather than inflated to avoid cuff hyperinflation. Hence, cuff pressures should be measured routinely using a manometer to minimize potential pressure–related airway complications.
