title: Nursing care of the laryngeal mask airway in pediatric cataract surgery.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the important experience of nursing care of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) in children undergoing cataract surgery.
  
  
  METHODS
  Fifty-five children undergoing cataract surgery were anesthetized by inhaling sevoflurane through a LMA and received perioperative nursing care. The safety of perioperative nursing for these children was also evaluated.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Through perioperative nursing care and psychological counseling for children with LMA, all patients were anesthetized without complications and underwent successful surgeries. No severe postoperative complications were observed.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Nursing care specific for LMA is a vital part of the success of anesthesia and pediatric cataract surgery.
