The objectives of the study were to compare the insertion facility, the effect on hemodynamic parameters, and effective ventilation using I-gel versus Air-Q supraglottic airway devices (SADs) for pediatric patients undergoing short-duration surgical procedures.One hundred and fifty children aged 3-10 years were randomly divided into two equal groups ...

Air-Q®sp-assisted awake fiberoptic bronchoscopic intubation in a patient with Ludwig's angina. [PDF]
A drastic, progressive gangrenous cellulitis of the soft tissues of the deep neck and mouth floor was described in 1836 by the German surgeon Karl Friedrich Wilhelm von Ludwig [1]. Current medical care practices have meant that Ludwig’s angina is rarely seen.

A comparison between ProSeal laryngeal mask airway and Air-Q Blocker in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. [PDF]
ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA) is an established device for airway management, while Air-Q Blocker (AQB) is a relatively new supraglottic device. The aim of this study is to compare AQB against PLMA in adults undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia.Eighty-eight adult patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy ...

A two-stage approach to induction and intubation of two infants with Pierre Robin Sequence using a LMA Classic™ and Air-Q®: two cases report [PDF]
The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) Classic™ and Air-Q® are supralaryngeal devices used for airway management in routine and difficult pediatric airways. We describe a novel two-stage technique of insertion of the LMA Classic™ awake prior to induction of ...

Pilot Study of the Air-Q Intubating Laryngeal Airway in Clinical Use [PDF]
The air-Q Intubating Laryngeal Airway (ILA) is a newly introduced extraglottic airway device. In this pilot study, we evaluated its use as a routine airway device during positive pressure ventilation. Ease of endotracheal intubation through the device was also assessed.

Awake bronchoscopic intubation through an air-Q® with the application of BIPAP [PDF]
To the Editor, Awake tracheal intubation is recommended for patients with a known or suspected difficult airway. A supraglottic airway device has been used as a conduit for awake intubation with a flexible bronchoscope. We describe an awake bronchoscope-guided tracheal intubation through an air-Q intubating laryngeal airway (air-Q , Mercury Medical ...
