Randomized Controlled TrialA randomised trial comparing the Ambu® Aura-i TM and the Ambu® Aura Gain TM laryngeal mask as conduit for tracheal intubation in children.
The Ambu Aura Gain is a newer second-generation supraglottic airway device designed for fibreoptic bronchoscopy (FOB)-guided tracheal intubation. ⋯ The Ambu Aura Gain served as a reliable device for FOB-guided tracheal intubation. Even if the time for intubation, when intubation was possible did not differ, the Aura-i showed only 79% intubation success, making it a doubtful device for FOB-guided tracheal intubation in cases of emergency and severe hypoxemia in small children.
