Do any of the medics/EMT's have any experiance with the LMA's. up until a few weeks ago I never heard of them. Im Skilled with NPA,OPA, King airways, Et tube. I hear there quicker to place and almost fool proof. I am skeptical of new gear . Plus I dont think i need to add another airway to my kit.

Garbage. Don't waste your time, although still in our scope (Paramedic) it is pretty much never seen. Only time i've even seen one in person was one time while going through medic school.

That seems to be the general consensus so far. Thanks for your input!!
