Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aims to determine the optimal dose of alfentanil in suppressing the airway reflexes during supreme LMA removal in anaesthetized adult.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The removal of LMA may be associated with coughing, biting, agitation and airway complication such as laryngospasm. Thus it is advisable to remove the LMA when the patient is breathing spontaneously and when the airway reflexes are still depressed. A number of techniques have been used to prevent this adverse emergence phenomenon, such as removing the tube while the patient is in deep plane of anaesthesia or administration of local anaesthetic and intravenous opioids

The administration of intravenous opioids before emergence may be useful for preventing cough, agitation and hemodynamic response. Alfentanyl is proven to suppress cough and agitation during the endotracheal tube emergence. However, its use in suppressing cough in LMA patient has not been evaluated.
