Objectif : Décrire l'oxymétrie pharyngienne utilisant le masque laryngé pour deux patients qui présentaient un lent débit circulatoire et chez qui l'oxymétrie digitale avait échoué.

Éléments cliniques : Le premier patient avait 47 ans et souffrait de choc septique; le second, âgé de 64 ans, présentait une défaillance multiorganique. Dans les deux cas, on a inséré un masque laryngé no 4 et une sonde pédiatrique d'oxymétrie pulsée derrière le tube trachéal. Une onde bien formée a été obtenue et la saturation en oxygène était de 0-2 % plus basse que celle des échantillons artériels.

Conclusion : L'oxymétrie pharyngienne réalisée avec le masque laryngée est faisable dans des cas de faible débit sanguin, lorsque l'oxymétrie digitale est impossible.
