Aim: To compare the frequency of complications of i-gel versus laryngeal mask airway supreme™ (LMA Supreme) in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Study Design: Randomized Controlled Trial Place and Duration of Study: Department of Anesthesia, Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Institute Karachi from 16th September 2019 to 15th March 2020. Methodology: One hundred and fifty four patients having gallstones ≤5 in numbers (size <2cm) on ultrasound for >6 months requiring cholecystectomy and planned for elective list under general anesthesia of age ranges from 25-55 years of both gender were included. Patients with known or predicted difficult airway, oropharyngeal pathology, cervical spine fracture, GERD and hiatus hernia were excluded. In group A, airway was secured with i-gel while in group B, airway was secured with laryngeal mask airway supreme™. In all patients, anesthesia was given by one consultant anesthetist (at least 3 years 0f post-fellowship experience). All patients were followed by the researcher in the first 24 hours for presence or absence of dysphagia and sore throat. Results: The mean age was 34.78±6.30 years in group A and 34.38±6.37 years in group B. Majority of the patients 119 (77.27%) were between 25 to 40 years of age. There were 54 (35.06%) males and 100 (64.94%) were females with male to female ratio of ratio of 1:2.9. The complications of i-gel vs laryngeal mask airway supreme™ were found to be as follows; dysphagia on 0.0% vs 6.49% (p-value = 0.023) and sore throat in 3.90% vs 20.78% (p=0.001). Conclusion: The frequency of dysphagia and sore throat is less after i-gel use in laparoscopic cholecystectomy as compared to laryngeal mask airway supreme™.

Background: In case of general anesthesia, airway maintenance along with least complications is the most important goal of team of anesthesiologists. In case of clinical practice, the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) devices have superiority in managing supraglottic airway. Recently i-gel airway has been introduced as supraglottic airway equipment (disposable). Aim: To make comparison between laryngeal mask and I-gel with respect to postoperative complication of sore throat in case of patients who were given general anesthesia. Study design: Randomized trial Setting: Anesthesia Department Study duration: 6 after synopsis approval in total 6months of duration Methods: Candidates were divided randomly divided into two groups. In case of members of group A, patients were given i-gel where as members of group B, disposable LMA was given. General anesthesia was administered according to the standardized protocols. A day after operation, candidates were check post operatively for 24 hours, for sore throat and information was documented on Performa. Results: The candidates mean age was 44.23±15.11years in case of i-gel group members whereas 46.10±15.56 years in case of LMA group. In case of i-gel group, there were about twenty five males members and thirty five were females members . In case of LMA group members, there were about twenty six males and thirty four female members . In present case research, sore throat postoperatively was seen in case of 17(14.2%) cases, i.e. 4 (6.7%) in i-gel group while 13(21.7%) in case of LMA group. The significant difference was witnessed between members of both groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: Thus i-gel is better than LMA for general anesthesia as it has fewer chances of side effects like postoperative sore throat.

Background: Upper airways collapse during anesthesia is a common issue faced by anesthetists. Air way maintenance is an essential component of general anesthesia. Laryngeal mask airway and Intersurgical-gel (i-gel) air way devices are new advances in general anesthesia. Present study aims to compare the ease of insertion and hemodynamic response of i-gel supraglottic and laryngeal mask airway (LMA). Material and Methods: A Randomized Clinical trial was conducted at the Department of Anesthesia, Shaikh Zayed Hospital, Lahore. Study duration was 6 months (June 2014- December 2014). A total of 60 patients were selected through non-probability consecutive sampling. Ethical approval was taken from ethical review board of Sheikh Zayed Hospital and informed written consents were taken from all the participants. Patients were randomly divided into two groups using lottery method. Group A was given laryngeal mask airway device while group B patients were provided with i-gel supraglottic device during anesthesia. Patients were compared for ease of insertion and hemodynamic parameters. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 24. Chi-square and t-test were applied and p-value ≤0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: A total of 60 patients were included in study. Mean age of patients was 35.2±11.7 years in LMA group and 36.7±13 years in i-gel group. Group B had lower number of insertion attempts (p=0.01) and high insertion satisfaction (p=0.4) as compared to group A. However, process failure and bleeding rate was found to be slightly higher in group B (16% and 13% respectively) as compared to group A (p>0.05). Conclusion: i-gel supraglottic device is a successful alternative option in terms of ease of insertion and less hemodynamic response as compared to laryngeal mask airway during general anesthesia.

This study was conducted in the Department of Anesthesiology, Holy Family Hospital Rawalpindi from 5 October 2011 to 5 April 2012 after approval of hospital ethics committee. Three hundred and eighteen patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria were selected in the study by non-probability consecutive sampling after taking informed written consent. Patients between the ages of 20 to 40 years were included, belonging to ASA class I and II, requiring General Anesthesia with Laryngeal Mask Airway for different surgical procedures. They were divided into two equal groups by computer generated random numbers. Group A comprised of one hundred and fifty eight patients in whom intravenous propofol was given for induction of anesthesia and Laryngeal mask insertion. Group B comprised of one hundred and fifty eight patients in whom inhalational induction with sevoflurane was done for Laryngeal mask insertion. Conduct of anesthesia was maintained similar in both groups. Cough and gag reflexes were observed in both groups at the time of Laryngeal mask insertion. Drug under study was said to be effective, if it is associated with no cough and gag reflex during Laryngeal mask insertion. All the data was analyzed by SPSS version 15. It was observed that 6.3% patients of group A (propofol) had positive cough reflex as compare to 13.2%% patients of group B (sevoflurane). The difference was statistically significant (p=0.038). While the incidence of gag reflex in group A was 8.2% and group B was 14.5%. But the difference was not found to be statistically significant (p=0.077). Propofol is more effective than sevoflurane for smooth LMA insertion during elective surgeries.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jcmc.v5i1.12562

Background: Successful insertion of Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) requires sufficient depth of anesthesia and depression of airway reflexes to avoid gagging, coughing and laryngeal spasm. The LMA is popular because it is easy to insert and it provides a secure airway for the patients who breathe spontaneously. Indeed, the intravent LMA instruction manual specifically recommends propofol for induction of anesthesia during LMA insertion. As a matter of fact Propofol and LMA insertion has become synonymous. However, there are some problems related to the use of propofol, for example, relatively high cost. This observational study was conducted to compare efficacy and safety of propofol and thiopentone -midazolam in smooth insertion of LMA and the hemodynamic changes over time in both groups. Methods: The study was done in the Department of Anesthesiology, Chittagong Medical College from July, 2012 to December, 2013. All the patients scheduled for elective surgical procedures under general anesthesia fulfilling the inclusion criteria, were the study population. Data was analyzed by computer based software SPSS-21. Results: Overall LMA insertion condition was improved better by the use of midazolam with thiopentone sodium (Group B) than propofol (Group A). The drug regime used in group A (Propofol) was expensive than group B (midazolam with thiopentone sodium) with indifferent hemodynamic stability in both groups. Mean ages of patients were 32.43 years ± SD- 10.67 years in group A and 33.5 years ± SD- 10.63 years in group B. Conclusion: In the perspective of our study, for smooth insertion of LMA midazolam-thiopentone sodium regime is cheaper and can be effectively and safely used over propofol regime.

Background Laryngeal mask airway insertion causes less changes of haemodynamic parameters. As haemodynamic changes during laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation as result of intense stimulation of sympathetic nerves system. Objective To find out the effective airway management by LMA during controlled ventilation, to avoid laryngoscopic and intubation induced haemodynamic changes and to avoid laryngospasm and bronchospasm. Method A total number of 100 patients ASA grade I & II were selected randomly as per inclusion and exclusion criteria in two groups. Fifty in each group. In group A used LMA and in group B used ETT during general anaesthesia in intermediate duration of gynaecological operation. Pulse,NIBP,SpO2 were recorded in perioperatively. Result Pulse, blood pressure were significant between the two groups (p<0.00) but in SpO2 was insignificant except in 2 min of intraoperative which was significant. (p<0.013). Conclusion LMA insertion causes less changes of haemodynamic parameters when compared with that of ET intubation. Our finding suggests that LMA can be safe and beneficial alternative to ETT.

Background: Sore throat is one of the major complications of tracheal intubation after general anesthesia. Pregabalin is an analgesic, the anti neuropathic pain and analgesic effects of which have been demonstrated in various studies. This study examined the effects of single dose pregabalin one hour before tracheal intubation, to prevent sore throat after extubation. Methods: In a double-blind, randomized clinical trial, 60 patients who had undergone general and urologic surgeries at Imam Reza hospital in Tabriz, Iran, since March to July 2015 that required tracheal intubation, were included in the study. The patients were randomly divided into two groups (group A, 30 patients and group B, 30 patients). In the group A, an hour before anesthesia, one pregabalin tablet (300mg) was given to the patients. For the patients of the group B, the placebo was given. After awareness of patients, the severity of sore throat was measured and recorded by VAS scale after 2, 6 and 24 hours of the surgery. Results: Severity and incidence of sore throat after tracheal intubation were not significantly different between two groups. Meanwhile, no side effects of pregabalin were observed in the group A. Conclusion: Administration of pregabalin as a single dose of 300 mg one hour prior to anesthesia and intubation decreased the incidence and severity of sore throat in the case group than the control group, although the amount of this reduction was not statistically significant between the two groups.
