Abstract
Successful management of airway without adverse events in laparoscopic surgeries is of prime importance which is commonly seen with laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation. ProSeal LMA having unique features can be used to secure airway without these adverse effects. Our aims in this study primarily are to compare adequacy of ventilation, risk of regurgitation and aspiration of gastric fluid, effect of hemodynamic parameters during and after insertion and throughout the study and ease and time of insertion of device. Secondary parameters are ease of gastric tube insertion and laryngopharyngeal morbidity.
