Difficult intubation and the Laryngeal Mask
Eur J Anaesthesiol Suppl.
1991.
Abstract
The Laryngeal Mask (LM) can be used to intubate patients in whom conventional direct laryngoscopy is difficult. Tracheal intubation can be achieved using the LM alone but the use of a fibre-optic laryngoscope increases the chances of success.
