What is the maximum amount of air recommended to inflate a King airway?

The maximum amount of air recommended to inflate a King airway is 60 ml. This amount is determined based on the manufacturer's guidelines, which are established to ensure the proper functioning of the device and prevent overinflation that could potentially harm the airway or lead to complications.

Using the correct volume of air is essential for achieving an effective seal within the esophagus while allowing for adequate ventilation. An inflation volume that exceeds the recommended amount could result in unnecessary pressure and potential injury to the surrounding structures or an ineffective seal that compromises airway management. Therefore, adhering to the established recommendation of 60 ml is crucial in maintaining safe and effective airway management practices.
