Laryngeal mask airways are medical devices that keep a patient's airway open during anaesthesia or unconsciousness by functioning as supraglottic airway devices. Anaesthetists use them to channel oxygen or inhalational anaesthetics to the lungs during surgery, whilst paramedics and emergency medical teams deploy them in pre-hospital settings for unconscious patients.
