Plain-language summary

The laryngeal Mask Airway was developed by Brain in 1981 and was available for clinical use in the United States by 1992 and has become very popular in routine medicine practice during 10 past years . LMA would serve as a choice to be used in the emergency situations even by the inexperienced users . Nowadays due to the increasing number of outpatient anesthesia and use of short-acting anesthetics almost without the use of any muscle relaxants requires an appropriate way for safe LMA insertion. As LMA insertion is generally performed blindly, clinicians are always in search of how to place and maintain the LMA in appropriate position.
