Clinical evaluation of the i-gel Plus supraglottic airway in Japanese patients: A prospective observational study. [PDF]
BackgroundThe i-gel® Plus, a new supraglottic airway, has a high oropharyngeal leak pressure of 32 ± 7 cmH2O in the European population. Because the i-gel® series was developed based on the laryngeal anatomy in Western populations, its performance in ...

Gastric tube placement through the drainage channel of second-generation supraglottic airway devices: a systematic review with evidence mapping [PDF]
BackgroundSecond-generation supraglottic airway (SGA) devices incorporate a dedicated gastric drainage channel that permits placement of a gastric tube (GT), but whether GT placement should be used routinely during general anaesthesia remains uncertain ...

To Compare the Postoperative Sore Throat and Hoarseness in Difficult-Airway Adults Undergoing General Anesthesia with or without an Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway Left Over the Endotracheal Tube [PDF]
Background: Extubation in difficult airways patients may provoke cough and laryngospasm. To reduce airway irritation after intubation, Blockbuster Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway (BBILMA) is mainly used.
