title: Use of laryngeal mask airway in near-term and term neonates during resuscitation: is it effective and safe?
abstract: A scenario where laryngeal mask airway was used for successful resuscitation of a late preterm neonate after failed bag and mask ventilation and unsuccessful endotracheal intubation is presented. A summary of available evidence regarding the safety and efficacy of the use of laryngeal mask airway during neonatal resuscitation is also presented.
