Comparison of Clinical Performance of the Guardian Laryngeal Mask With LMA Proseal - A Perspective, Randomized,Blind Study
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Guardian Laryngeal Mask and Proseal Laryngeal Mask Airway for Efficacy of Oropharyngeal Seal Pressure. Completed, enrolled 80 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
To compare insertion characteristics of 2 different supraglottic devices (Guardian LMA and Proseal LMA) and to observe any associated complications.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Guardian Laryngeal Mask: The Guardian Laryngeal Mask (Ultimate Medical Pty Ltd, Richmond, Vic, Australia) is a new silicone-based single-use extraglottic airway device that forms a seal with the glottis for ventilation and with the hypopharynx for airway protection, and provides a gastric drainage port. In addition, it has a port for suctioning material from the hypopharynx and a pilot balloon valve that constantly monitors intracuff pressure. In the following randomized, non-crossover study, the investigators test if oropharyngeal leak pressures differed between the Guardian Laryngeal Mask and the LMA proseal in paralysed, anaesthetised patients.
Proseal Laryngeal Mask Airway: Silicon based, reusable, modified dorsal cuff and drainage tube
