title: Safe and easy emergence from anesthesia in adults following removal of laryngeal mask airway: utility of oral airway and T-connector.
abstract: Removal of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) can be executed while patients are deeply anesthetized or awake. Recent publications have focused on suitable anesthetic concentrations in the brain for removal of LMA in anesthetized patients. Here, we describe an easy and safe method for removal of LMA during deep anesthesia.
