„Wenn ich eine Larynxmaske nutze, muss der Inspirationsdruck auf 20 mbar limitiert sein. Außerdem darf man nicht relaxieren und PEEP geht übrigens auch nicht.“
Abstract
Peak pressures ≥ 20 mbar are not a contraindication for laryngeal masks. The oropharyngeal leak pressure of a laryngeal mask does not correspond to the pressure at which oesophagogastric air leakage occurs. Setting a peak pressure limit of 20 cm H2O on the respirator can lead to critical situations because the tidal volume may then remain too low. A good alternative is to use a pressure alarm limit. The use of laryngeal masks does not preclude the use of PEEP and/or relaxation.
