Jul 09 2012· Ultimately the intended purpose and duration of intubation should govern the choice of size. In 1928 Magill suggested “the largest endotracheal tube which the larynx will comfortably accommodate” [ 1 ]. Even 30 years ago it was common practice to place 9.0- or even 10.0-mm tubes for males and 8.0-mm tubes for females.

The size was the same for both methods in 142 children (78%). The disagreement between both techniques was only of one size in the remaining 41 patients (22%). In such patients the weight was a borderline value that would indicate a change in the size of the laryngeal mask airway using the classic method.

Jul 31 2021· To avoid such adverse complications associated with endotracheal intubation the first supraglottic airway device the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) was designed in 1981 by Dr. Archie Brain . The latest addition to the family of supraglottic airway devices in the paediatric age group was the second-generation devices.

Laryngeal Mask Airway Size and Patient Weight. We developed an easy single formula to determine LMA size based on patient weight as follows: With this formula it is easy to calculate a suitable LMA size for a patient of known weight. In addition there is little difference between the calculated LMA size–patient weight relation between this formula and the recommended …

We advocate here an alternative formula:LMA ™ size = 1 + BWru/20 where BWru indicates body weight (in kilograms) rounded up at the first digit. For example if a patient’s body weight of 14 kg (BWru) is 20 because 14 can be rounded up to 20 at the first digit the calculation would be as follows: LMA ™ size = 1 + 20/20 = 1 + 1 = 2.

Background: The manufacturers of i-gel™ Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) recommend size selection by actual body weight (ABW). However this actual weight-related size selection may not be satisfactory in some patients because of the wide range of weights for each device size and individual anatomical variation.

Context The successful use of the laryngeal mask airway in children partly depends on the correct selection of size. Most anaesthesiologists rely on the weight-based table which is often difficult to remember. A simple method allowing an adequate choice of the correct size may be highly desirable.

Jul 01 2019· We have proposed an easy formula to remember the “recommended volume of air” to be filled in a particular sized LMA ProSeal™ airway: Volume of air (in mL) = [(size of LMA ProSeal™) 1] × 10. This formula has one exception that it does not give the volume of air to be filled in Size 1 and 1.5 of LMA ProSeal™.
