When the situation does not require an endotracheal tube, the LMA can afford a number of advantages including producing less stress to the patient’s body and causing less coughing and throat discomfort. Also, patients need less anesthetic when an LMA is used. When compared to the use of a face mask and bag, the LMA is less likely to cause aspiration and it frees the anesthesiologist’s hands for other patient care responsibilities during the procedure.
