ABSTRACT

La intubación endotraqueal es el método ideal para abordar la vía aérea durante la reanimación cardiopulmonar. Sin embargo, en ocasiones, esta resulta imposible de efectuarla, aun por manos experimentadas. Por tal motivo, se realizó esta presentación de caso, que tuvo como objetivo describir la conducta ante un lactante que no pudo ser intubado mediante laringoscopia directa, y necesitaba una vía aérea artificial. Se revisó la literatura y se consideró las opiniones de varios autores. Se concluyó que la máscara laríngea es una alternativa para la ventilación y oxigenación durante la reanimación cardiopulmonar pediátrica cuando no se puede intubar la tráquea, a menos que existan contraindicaciones para ello.


The endotracheal intubation is an ideal method to reach the aerial way during the cardiopulmonary reanimation. Nevertheless, sometimes it is impossible to make, even for the most experienced hands. For that reason, we prepared this presentation of a case, aimed to describe the behavior with a young child who could not be intubated through direct laryngoscopy, and needed to have an artificial aerial way. We reviewed the literature and took into consideration the opinions of some authors. We concluded that laryngeal mask is an alternative for ventilation and oxygenation during pediatric cardiopulmonary reanimation when it is impossible to intubate the trachea when there are not contraindications for that.
