Does using an endotracheal tube or a supraglottic airway device result in better unassisted ventilation in rabbits? (2021)

Bruce, H., Brennan, M.

Abstract

Both endotracheal tubes and supraglottic airway devices appear to provide adequate unassisted ventilation in anaesthetised rabbits. However, it is highly recommended that a capnograph is used with both airway devices to monitor ventilation changes, especially if using a supraglottic airway device during longer surgeries or if the patient is repositioned during the surgery.
