The cuffed oropharyngeal airway is a new disposable airway based on the Guedel oral airway. It has an asymmetrical cuff which provides a seal as well as lifting the base of the tongue forwards, and a 15-mm connector allowing attachment to an anaesthetic breathing system. The device does not extend beyond the vallecula, so that the laryngeal inlet can be visualised with a fibreoptic laryngoscope passed between the cuff of the device and the pharyngeal wall. The advantage is that ventilation is maintained throughout the intubating sequence. We describe its use in a patient with oropharyngeal carcinoma.
带套囊口咽气道是一种基于古德尔口咽气道的新型一次性气道。它有一个不对称套囊,既能起到密封作用,又能将舌根向前抬起,还有一个15毫米的接头,可连接至麻醉呼吸系统。该装置不会超出会厌谷,因此使用纤维喉镜可在装置套囊与咽壁之间通过,从而观察到喉入口。其优点是在整个插管过程中都能维持通气。我们描述了它在一名口咽癌患者中的使用情况。
