The adrenal glands lie on the superior aspect of the kidneysand consist of two endocrine organs: the inner adrenal medullaand the outer adrenal cortex. The adrenal cortex and medullahave distinct embryological origins. The medullary portion consistsof chromaffin cells derived from the ectodermal cells of theneural crest. The cortex is of mesodermal origin.12 The adrenalglands are densely vascularized, the arterial blood supply reaching. . .

Successful placement of any supraglottic airway devicedepends particularly upon pharyngeal tone, and also on the positionof head and neck, shape of the palato-pharyngeal curve, anddepth of anaesthesia.
LMA cuff volumes should be adjusted tothe minimum needed to achieve airtight seal. The optimal sizeof LMA must be selected rather than overinflating a small LMA.
TheLMA has been shown to be useful to bypass pathology at supraglotticlevel and facilitate emergency oxygenation and ventilation forthe difficult airway.
Complications are more likely when usingthe LMA in infants and small children, particularly sizes 1and 1.5.
A learning curve exists for the use of LMAs in paediatricpractice; early complications are encountered more frequentlythan in adult practice.
  Since its introduction into paediatric anaesthesia in the late1980s, the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) has been used increasinglyto provide hands-free airway management in paediatric . . . [Full Text of this Article]

The first 150 words of the full text of this article appear below. Key points Adrenocortical disease results in disturbances ofbody water volume and electrolyte concentrations; intra-cellularelectrolyte defects may be severe. Preoperative assessmentis of crucial importance in identifying the endocrine diseaseprocess and the severity of its effects. Preoperative preparationinvolves correction of volume deficit and electrolyte disturbances,and replacement of deficient hormones. Cardiovascular disturbanceand instability are particularly common and invasive cardiovascularmonitoring should be considered. Postoperative mineralocorticoidand glucocorticoid supplementation should be considered in Addison'sdisease and in steroid-induced hypoadrenalism.
