SGA
Precautions and side effects
Precautions
- inability to prepare the patient in the sniffing position
- patients who require high airway pressure
- paediatric patient who may have enlarged tonsils
- vomit in the airway
Side effects
- correct placement does not prevent passive regurgitation or gastric distension
SGA
contraindications
- intact gag reflex or resistance to insertion
- strong jaw tone or trismus
- suspected epiglottitis or upper airway obstruction
SGA
Indications
- unconscious patient without gag reflex
- ineffective ventilation with BVM and basic airway management
- > 10 minutes of assisted ventilation required
- unable to intubate
