Summary

Invistigators study both supraglottic airway devices; the classic LMA and the I GEL mask are satisfactory devices providing high airway leaking pressures. Although both devices provide high airway leaking pressures, Invistigators study revealed that the I gel mask provides a better seal with the glottic aperture and shorter time of insertion than cLMA. Both devices showed also effective ventilation, more hemodynamic stability and no episode of hypoxia with minimal post-operative complications.

Conditions

  • LMA Vs I Gel

Interventions

DEVICE

Laryngeal Mask Airway

The aim of this study is to compare between cLMA and I gel regarding insertion success rate, the time of insertion, leaking pressure, assessment of position by fiber optic, hemodynamic, Spo2 for each device during insertion and maintenance of general anaesthesia and postoperative complications in obese patients

DEVICE

I gel Airway

I gel is a new type of laryngeal mask and doesn't have an inflatable cuff. Because of its thermoplastic elastomer structure, it exactly adapts to the supraglottic tissue by binding with body temperature, thus minimising air leakage
