<p>Device for guided tracheal intubation through the intubating laryngeal mask airway to facilitate lung ventilation in unconscious patients, comprising a completely flexible thin tube (1), a bulb of adequate brightness (2) fixed with atoxic glue and silicone (3), a 15-mm concentric adaptor (5), two leads (4) ending in a power connector (6) and an extension (7) ending in a battery (8) with a power switch (9). The device is inserted into the lumen of the tracheal tube (10) in such a way that the bulb protrudes from the distal end of the tracheal tube (10a) and changes the conventional blind technique of tracheal intubation through the intubating laryngeal mask airway, from blind to guided, by using the transillumination of the light through the soft tissues of the human body.</p> |
