Abstract

V originále

Supraglottic devices (SAD) evolved from simple tools for airway management to devices for multiple uses. The video laryngeal masks include a dead-end channel for a dedicated camera and therefore provide a direct vision capability not only for introduction but also when inserting the tracheal tube throughout the SADs.Our retrospective consecutive formal case series presents the first thirty uses of SaCoVLMTM video laryngeal mask in our institution. We have used the SaCoVLMTM successfully for airway maintenance, as a conduit in intubation (both elective and in anticipated difficult airway scenarios), and also as a conduit in bronchoscopy, esophagoscopy, and endobronchial ultrasound bronchoscopy. We believe we are the first authors to use this device in the last-mentioned usage. We were able to introduce the SaCoVLMTM and achieve sufficient ventilation in all 30 patients in our case series. Of the 20 cases when the device was used as a conduit to introduce additional devices, we recorded only one failure.The SaCoVLMTM has the potential to become a versatile device in all the above-mentioned four different scenarios.
