Comparison of I-gel and Proseal LMA for airway management in pediatric patients under controlled ventilation - A prospective, randomized, single blind clinical study
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical Anaesthesia - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction The Proseal Laryngeal Mask Airway PLMA and Igel are two novel supraglottic devices available for airway management and can be used safely in paediatric patients The primary aim of our study was to compare the efficacy of PLMA and Igel in providing adequate airway seal in paediatric patients under controlled ventilationMaterials and Methods A prospective randomized single blind clinical study was carried out during October 2014 to September 2015 A total of 64 ASA PS grade I and II paediatric patients Aged 39 years undergoing elective general surgery were included Patients with upper respiratory tract infection and difficult intubation were excluded The patients were randomly assigned into two groups PLMA Group and Igel Group using randomizer software We assessed airway insertion time ease of insertion and number of attempts for airway control and gastric tube placement oropharyngeal seal pressure hemodynamic parameters and complicationsResults The oropharyngeal seal pressure was significantly higher p00025 in group PLMA 29137cm of H2O than in group Igel 26335 cm of H2O Hemodynamic parameters success rate and postoperative complications were comparable among both the groupsConclusion Both PLMA and Igel can be used safely and effectively for airway management in paediatric patients under controlled ventilationKeywords Igel PLMA Paediatric patient Controlled ventilation

A clinical comparative study of microcuff paediatric tracheal tube v/s uncuffed endotracheal tubes in paediatric airway management
Background: In paediatric airway management, uncuffed Endo tracheal tubes(UETT) were always thought to be safe for practice. Cuffed ETT(CETT) were found to cause airway edema and increased resistance to airflow in the po...
