(standard) version, the laryngeal tube is made up of a tube with a larger balloon cuff in the middle (oropharyngeal cuff) and a smaller balloon cuff at the end (oesophageal cuff). The tube is kinked at an angle of 30-45° in the middle; the kink is located in the larger cuff. There are two apertures, located between the two cuffs, through which ventilation takes place. Both cuffs are inflated through a single small lumen line and pilot balloon. The cuffs are high-volume, low-pressure cuffs with inflating volume ranging from 10 ml (size 0) to 90 ml (size 5). A large bore syringe, which is marked with the required volume for each size, is used to inflate the cuffs. A cuff inflator can also be used, in which case the cuffs should be inflated to a pressure of 60 cm H2O. Three black lines on the tube indicate the depth of insertion when aligned with the teeth.<sup id="cite_ref-pmid16286348_2-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-pmid16286348-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Laryngeal_tube&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Larynxtubus.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/90/Larynxtubus.jpg/220px-Larynxtubus.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/90/Larynxtubus.jpg/330px-Larynxtubus.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/90/Larynxtubus.jpg/440px-Larynxtubus.jpg 2x" data-file-width="640" data-file-height="480" /></a><figcaption>Laryngeal tube placement in glass model</figcaption></figure> <p>The laryngeal tube was developed in Germany and introduced to the European market by <a href="/w/index.php?title=VBM_Medizintechnik&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="VBM Medizintechnik (page does not exist)">VBM Medizintechnik</a> in the autumn of 1999.<sup id="cite_ref-pmid11841891_18-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-pmid11841891-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Since then the design has been modified several times. Currently four different models are used: the standard tube as single use or re-use models and the modified tube (laryngeal tube-Suction II) as single use or re-use models. The re-usable models can be autoclaved up to 50 times, while the modified laryngeal tube (Suction) incorporates an extra lumen for inserting a gastric tube or suction system. There are six sizes of the laryngeal tube, ranging from newborn (size 0) to large adult (size 5). The connector of the tube is color-coded for each size. The different sizes are calibrated according to weight or height.<sup id="cite_ref-pmid16286348_2-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-pmid16286348-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span
