The cat's meow is the "Zippy" LMA insertion technique... Partially inflate the lma so there are no ridges or indentations in the lma. Rub jelly on the part of the lma that will go in pt's mouth. Hold lma like pencil. Place lma in pt's mouth in a quick twisting fluid motion until resistance is felt. Done. If the placement takes you more than 3 secs you be candy a$$. No fingers should dig inside pt's mouth. You don't even need gloves on. You don't need to inflate lma once you place the lma in pt's mouth. Greenlings, learn this technique and you too shall enter "Zippydom" ---Zippy
