Use of the Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) Protector™ for shoulder surgeries in beach-chair position

The use of supraglottic airway devices in the management of airway for patients in beach-chair positions for shoulder surgeries is often appropriate and increasingly favoured over tracheal intubation due to the potential complications associated with the latter [1,2]. We report our initial experience and satisfactory performance of the Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) Protector™ in three patients scheduled for elective shoulder surgeries performed in beach-chair positions. Recently introduced in 2016, the LMA Protector™ is a single-use second-generation supraglottic airway device complete with a pharyngeal chamber and dual gastric access ports.
