Summary

Laryngeal mask airways (LMA) have been shown to be a safe mode of airway management when delivering general anesthesia to patients during a variety of operative procedures. LMA's have been studied in a wide range of otolaryngologic procedures, and are generally safe and accepted by both anesthesia providers and surgeons alike. This study will aim to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of LMA for airway management during sinonasal surgery by directly comparing them to endotracheal intubation in a prospective randomized single-blind study.
