Business Wire
Teleflex Incorporated (NYSE: TFX), a leading global provider of
medical devices used in critical care and surgery, will showcase
the LMA Protector™ Airway, our most advanced 2nd generation LMA®
Supraglottic Airway Device (SAD), at the World Airway Management
Meeting in Dublin, Ireland on November 12 - 14, 2015.
The LMA Protector™ Airway is the world's first single-use
laryngeal mask with a dual gastric drainage channel and pharyngeal
chamber designed specifically to channel high volume, high pressure
gastric contents away from the airway. The 4th National Audit
Project of the Royal College of Anaesthetists and the Difficult
Airway Society (NAP4) has recommended all hospitals have SADs with
gastric access available for both routine and rescue airway
management.1
The LMA Protector™ Airway has a 100% silicone cuff and airway
tube and is designed to achieve insertion success and a secure
fit.
The LMA Protector™ Airway features Cuff Pilot™ Technology. The
Cuff Pilot™ Technology is an integrated pressure indicator that
constantly monitors intracuff pressure and provides at-a-glance
manometry of cuff pressure levels.
The LMA Protector™ Airway allows for fibreoptic guided tracheal
intubation, with endotracheal tubes up to 7.5 mm to provide a safe
and effective option for airway replacement.
