Ambu AuraOnce in detail
Laryngeal masks are medical devices used to secure the airway in patients. They are particularly useful in situations where endotracheal intubation is not possible or not required. The use of laryngeal masks offers a number of advantages, such as easier and quicker application compared to conventional intubation, reduced risk of airway injury and improved patient tolerance. The laryngeal masks are made of soft and flexible material that makes it possible to seal the pharyngeal lumen and ensure a safe airway. There are different types of laryngeal masks, including disposable and reusable masks, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. The choice of the appropriate laryngeal mask depends on the patient's individual situation and the requirements of the procedure. Overall, laryngeal masks are an important tool in anaesthesia and enable safe and effective ventilation in patients.
Purpose and advantages of using disposable laryngeal masks
The use of disposable laryngeal masks offers an alternative to conventional bag-mask ventilation. The purpose of these masks is to allow easy and atraumatic placement during emergency ventilation.
One advantage of these disposable laryngeal masks is the best possible seal they offer. Thanks to their special shape and design, the mask adapts perfectly to the patient's larynx and thus ensures effective ventilation. In addition, they are quick and easy to use, which is an advantage for the rescuer.
Another advantage is the high level of user-friendliness of these disposable laryngeal masks. They are easy to use and require less training and experience than other ventilation methods. This also enables healthcare professionals with less prior knowledge to perform effective emergency ventilation.
Overall, disposable laryngeal masks offer a promising solution for emergency ventilation. They are an alternative to bag-mask ventilation and are characterised by their simple positioning, atraumatic placement, best possible seal and user-friendliness. Their use ensures effective ventilation and thus successfully manages potentially life-threatening situations.
