The LMA CTrach™ is designed to increase intubation success rates in difficult airways.

Designed for anticipated or unanticipated difficult airway situations and for cardiopulmonary resuscitation, the LMA Fastrach™ facilitates continuous ventilation during intubation, lessening the likelihood of desaturation.

Special design features of the LMA Fastrach™ that facilitate intubation, blind or fiberoptic, include:

  • Rigid, anatomically curved, airway tube that is wide enough to accept an 8.0 mm cuffed ETT and is short enough to ensure passage of the ETT cuff beyond the vocal cords
  • Rigid handle to facilitate one-handed insertion, removal, and adjustment of the device's position to enhance oxygenation and alignment with the glottis
  • Epiglottic elevating bar in the mask aperture which elevates the epiglottis as the ETT is passed through and a ramp which directs the tube centrally and anteriorly to reduce the risk of arytenoid trauma or esophageal placement

Other benefits:

  • Available in three sizes, one size for children, two sizes for adults
  • LMA Fastrach™ comes with a specially designed reusable LMA Fastrach™ ETT
