Brief Summary

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

This study is designed to observe the occurrence of failure or difficulty during placement of supraglottic airway devices (SGAs) and its associated risk factors in pediatric patients. Despite wide use in pediatric practice, not much is known related to problems during SGA insertion unlike adults. The main information regarding pediatric SGA comes from either small comparative studies or retrospective studies reporting increased risk of failure. Thus the main aim of this prospective, multicentric, observational study is to determine the incidence of "difficult" or "failed" SGA placement in children and clarify the possible risk factors for difficulty.
