Laryngeal
Tube
The Laryngeal Tube is a supraglottic
airway device for use in general
anesthesia during spontaneous or
positive pressure ventilation. In
emergency it is an ideal adjunct
to secure the airway during difficult
airway management as an alternative
technique to mask ventilation and
tracheal intubation.
The Laryngeal Tube is available
in a single lumen version (LT +
LT-D) as well as in a dual lumen
version (LTSII + LTS-D). With the
dual lumen version the main advantages
of Laryngeal Mask (easy handling)
and Combitube (aspiration protection)
were combined to develop an instrument
to secure the airway.
Both versions are available as
reusable products as well as disposable
products to reduce the risk of cross
infections.
