Comparison of the oropharyngeal leak pressure in head rotation between a first-generation laryngeal mask and the i-gel laryngeal mask during general anesthesia - a randomized controlled trial. [PDF]
BMC AnesthesiolThe laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is essential in anesthesia, using an air-inflatable cuff for optimal pharyngeal fit. The i-gel® LMA (i-gel) is unique for its thermoplastic elastomer material making an air-inflatable cuff unnecessary and has shown higher ...

Abstract No.: ABS1132: A Comparative study of Oropharyngeal leak pressure in LMA ProtectorTM with cuff pilot vs LMA SupremeTM in paralysed patients: A prospective randomised clinical study. [PDF]
Indian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2022 Background & Aims: Oropharyngeal leak pressure (OLP) is the pressure at which a gas leaks around the airway, higher leak pressures, betterseal. Our primary aim was to measure OLP and Secondary aims were to measure Insertion Time, Numbers of Attempts,Ease

Clinical evaluation of the i-gel Plus supraglottic airway in Japanese patients: A prospective observational study. [PDF]
PLoS ONEBackgroundThe 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 ...

A randomized comparison of volume- and pressure-controlled ventilation in children with the i-gel: Effects on peak inspiratory pressure, oropharyngeal leak pressure, and gastric insufflation. [PDF]
Medicine (Baltimore), 2017 The i-gel provides good airway sealing but gastric insufflation may occur when peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) exceeds the sealing pressure of the i-gel without a gastric tube. Pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV) provides lower PIP compared with volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) and low PIP may reduce the incidence of gastric insufflation in ...

Journal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing, 2022 Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) insertion may not always be smooth without complications. Controversial results of several studies evaluating ideal insertion conditions have been published. This study compared the oropharyngeal leak pressure values and fiberoptic grading scores between blind and video-laryngoscope-guided LMA insertion.Patients were ...

Mucosal pressure and oropharyngeal leak pressure with the ProSeal versus laryngeal mask airway in anaesthetized paralysed patients. [PDF]
British Journal of Anaesthesia, 2000 The ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA) is a new laryngeal mask device with a larger, wedge-shaped cuff and a drainage tube. We tested the hypothesis that directly measured mucosal pressure and oropharyngeal leak pressure (OLP) are higher for the PLMA compared with the laryngeal mask airway (LMA).

Comparison of oropharyngeal leak pressure between the Ambu® AuraGain™ and the LMA® Supreme™ supraglottic airways: a randomized-controlled trial [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Anesthesia/Journal canadien d'anesthésie, 2018 Studies comparing the recently introduced Ambu® AuraGain™ (Auragain) with the LMA® Supreme™ (Supreme) supraglottic airway (SGA) have reported conflicting results regarding differences in oropharyngeal leak pressure (OLP). This randomized-controlled trial investigated the OLP of the Auragain compared with the Supreme in patients undergoing ambulatory ...

A Comparison of the Oropharyngeal Leak Pressure between the Reusable Classic™ Laryngeal Mask Airway and the Single-use Soft Seal™ Laryngeal Mask Airway [PDF]
Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2006 We tested the oropharyngeal leak pressure with the reusable laryngeal mask airway and the single-use Soft Seal™ laryngeal mask airway. These two types of laryngeal mask airway (LMA) have a similar design but the reusable LMA cuff is made from silicone whereas the Soft Seal LMA cuff is Polyvinylchloride. Thirty-five healthy subjects
