Summary

Background - The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the success and pharyngeal trauma when 3 or 6 cm height of pillow is used for the ProSealTM laryngeal mask airway insertion

Methods

\- This prospective randomized, controlled study included 80 adult patients . In the 3 cm (n=40) or 6 cm group (n=40), the PLMA was inserted while the head is placed on the 3 cm or 6 cm height of pillow. The success rate at first and second attempt, insertion time, blood staining on cuff, sore throat and hoarseness were assessed.

Conditions

  • Anesthesia
