NCT01385969 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 360

Last updated 2015-11-06

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if using 20 mL B.Braun syringes to inflate LMAs and allowing them to recoil will put the pressure of the LMA cuff within the safety range. It will also determine if remaining within this safety range has an effect on complications after surgery..

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Standard inflation of LMA cuff

LMA cuff will be inflated per standard practice with a syringe and resulting cuff pressure will be measured by manual palpation of the cuff per standard practice.

DEVICE

Pressure check with syringe recoil

LMA cuff will be inflated per standard practice with a syringe and resulting cuff pressure will be measured by syringe recoil

DEVICE

Pressure check by pressure transducer

LMA cuff will be inflated per standard practice with a syringe and resulting cuff pressure will be measured by pressure transducer.
