The choice of airway device for resuscitation depends on the skill of the user, the equipment available, the conscious state of the patient, the location of the patient and the probable cause of the cardiorespiratory arrest. Extraglottic airway devices are recommended by the European and American Resuscitation Councils for use when intubation skills are lacking. In this review, we discuss recent research relevant to the use of extraglottic airway devices in resuscitation.
