Comparison of Videolaryngoscopy-guided and Blinded Paramedian Techniques for Ambu AuraGain Insertion in Elective Surgeries: A Randomised Controlled Trial [PDF]
Introduction: Blind insertion of Supraglottic Airway Devices (SAD) often results in suboptimal positioning in the oropharynx or hypopharynx. On the other hand, laryngoscopy-guided insertion will give a better One-Lung Ventilation (OLV) and prevention of ...
