Both endotracheal intubation and the laryngeal mask are already established and have their specific applications. The Combitube SA applied submentally is useful for patients with serious craniomaxillomandibular fractures, particularly those which disturb the occlusion and cause serious haemorrhage with attendant difficulties for intubation. Combitube SA used via the submental route will facilitate fracture reduction and temporary maintenance of fractures, so that bleeding, pain and airway problems may be managed more easily until alternative intubation has been achieved.
气管插管和喉罩都已得到应用且有其特定用途。经颏下应用的食管气管联合导管（Combitube SA）对严重颅颌面下颌骨骨折患者有用，特别是那些扰乱咬合并导致严重出血且伴有插管困难的患者。经颏下途径使用食管气管联合导管（Combitube SA）将有助于骨折复位和骨折的临时固定，以便在实现替代插管之前能更轻松地处理出血、疼痛和气道问题。
