ABSTRACT:
A laryngeal mask assembly has a laryngeal mask device with a tube opening into a mask. The assembly includes an obturator inserted along the tube during insertion, with the patient end of the obturator lying adjacent the patient end of the tube so as to prevent the epiglottis entering the tube. The obturator has an air passage extending along its length and a handle projecting rearwardly from a stop, which limits how far the obturator can be inserted in the tube.
