A laryngeal mask airway is a supraglottic airway device which allows for controlled ventilation and delivery of anesthetic gases without requiring laryngoscopy or instrumentation of the trachea. It is considered to be a less secure airway device than an endotracheal tube.

LMA (laryngeal mask airway)® Unique™ is a first generation LMA utilizing a silicone Cuff with integrated cuff pressure monitoring device. It is advertised to have better elasticity, seal pressures, and decreased sore throat risk vs PVC LMA cuffs.
