For which height is the King LT Size 4 supraglottic airway indicated?

The King LT Size 4 supraglottic airway is specifically designed for use in patients who are between 5 to 6 feet tall. The sizing of supraglottic airways is crucial to ensure proper fit and function during emergency airway management. This size range allows for optimal placement in the esophagus and minimizes the risk of complications such as inadequate ventilation or airway trauma.

The other height ranges do not align with the clinical guidelines for the use of the King LT Size 4, as they are intended for individuals who fall outside of the 5 to 6 feet category. Choosing an inappropriate size can lead to ineffective airway management, making it vital for paramedics to understand the correct sizing to ensure success in their interventions.
