No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators test the hypothesis that oropharyngeal leak pressure and fiberoptic position differ between the size 2 LM Ambu AuraOnce and the LM Ambu AuraGain in non-paralyzed anaesthetized pediatric patients.

Conditions

  • Airway Management

Interventions

DEVICE

Ambu AuraOnce

Oropharyngeal leak pressure was determined by closing the expiratory valve of the anaesthesia breathing system and a fixed gas flow of 3 l minute-1. The airway pressure at which an equilibrium was reached was noted (maximum allowed 40 cm H2O).

DEVICE

Ambu AuraGain

The airway tube view was scored using an established scoring system (4=only vocal cords visible; 3=vocal cords plus posterior epiglottis; 2=vocal cords plus anterior epiglottis; 1=vocal cords not seen)
