Effectiveness of intubating laryngeal mask airway in managing out-of-hospital cardiac arrest by non-physicians

Resuscitation Dec 21, 2018

Lemaitre EL, et al. - Researchers evaluated the feasibility and effectiveness of intubation through the Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway (ILMA) when used by prehospital emergency nurses in the setting of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). In this prospective, observational trial performed during 12 years by the fire department and prehospital emergency service of the health district of Strasbourg, France, 1,464 ILMA placements that were attempted by emergency nurses during OHCA were identified. In 1,250 patients (85.38%) after ILMA placement and in 1,078 patients (73.63%) after intubation, ventilation was possible—indicative of a high success rate of intubation through the ILMA.
