Ambu® AuraGain™ Disposable Laryngeal Mask

A complete disposable second-generation laryngeal mask

The Ambu AuraGain is an anatomically shaped second-generation laryngeal mask that features an integrated gastric channel for easy gastric tube placement, an integral bite absorption area to protect against occlusion, and a thin, soft inflatable cuff capable of establishing high seal pressures.

High seal pressures

The thin and soft cuff of the AuraGain is designed to deliver high seal pressures (documented up to 40cmH2O). It is also able to establish a seal with a low cuff pressure in order to minimise the risk of compression trauma to the soft tissues of the airway.

Rapid placement, stable fit

The AuraGain is capable of fast insertion times, and also features a large, flat backplate that is designed to provide additional stability for the device when positioned.

Integrated gastric access

The integrated gastric channel enables easy passage of a gastric tube into the stomach for the purpose of suction or decompression.

Intubation capability

As an additional safety feature, the AuraGain can also be used as a conduit for intubation. In an unexpected difficult airway case, or a “Can’t intubate – Can’t ventilate” scenario, where the objective is to intubate the patient, a tracheal tube can be passed through the airway tube of the AuraGain, with the guidance of a flexible scope (such as the Ambu aScope) in order to intubate the patient.

Versatility in action

Fast insertion times, high seal pressures, integrated gastric access and the ability for use as a conduit for intubation make the AuraGain a highly versatile device, suitable for a wide range of clinical applications. 

Routine anaesthesia, difficult airway patients, failed intubation, resuscitation, use as a conduit for intubation.
