Brief Summary

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

This study aims to compare the effect of paratracheal and cricoid pressure on placement of the i-gel in terms of the success rate of i-gel insertion, time to placement, the rate of optimal position of the device, and difficulty of i-gel placement.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Paratracheal pressure group

After the induction of anesthesia, the i-gel is placed under the application of paratracheal pressure.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Placement of the i-gel

Intervention Type OTHER

The lubricated i-gel is inserted into the mouth and introduced along the hard palate with a continuous and gentle push until resistance was felt in the hypopharynx.

Cricoid pressure group

After the induction of anesthesia, the i-gel is placed under the application of cricoid pressure.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Placement of the i-gel

Intervention Type OTHER

The lubricated i-gel is inserted into the mouth and introduced along the hard palate with a continuous and gentle push until resistance was felt in the hypopharynx.
