Airway preparation for training of

airway management

In these instructions, you learn how to prepare the airways of the AmbuMan Airway

and AmbuMan Advanced training manikins for advanced airway management.

Adequate preparation of the airway protects it from damage. Ambu recommends the

use of the accompanying water-soluble lubricating gel.

For preparation of the airway it is advisable to wear examination gloves.

Then apply the lubricant to the palate, tongue, epig-

lottis and the area around the glottis of the training

device.

2. Use of a laryngeal tube (King LTS-D)

Empty both cuffs and apply alarge drop of

water-soluble lubricant to the palm of your hand,

and moisten the distal half of the King LTS-D with

it. To do so, let the King LTS-D rotate in the

palm of your hand.

Ambu recommends the use of a size 4 King LTS-D (red standard connector) for airway management.

Now open the mouth of the training device using the

crossed nger technique, and guide the tongue with

the index finger towards the lower jaw. Now

insert the King LTS-D slowly and carefully along the

index finger and pull it back again. Repeat this

procedure several times until the King LTS-D can be

inserted easily into the correct position.

If any problems occur during training, repeat

these steps immediately.
