Airway, laryngeal, single-use

Intended purpose

A curved tube with a distal inflatable cuff/mask intended to be used in inhalational anaesthesia and resuscitation to facilitate and secure airway patency for the delivery and exchange of gases in spontaneously breathing and ventilated patients. It is inserted into the hypopharynx above the glottis to create a seal and to prevent the tongue from obstructing the anatomical airway. This is a single-use device.
