    Abstract

    Introduction: Increase in cuff pressure is seen during nitrous oxide anaesthesia if air is used to inflate the cuff of LMA. This can lead to post-operative complications like sore throat, hoarseness and dysphagia. The aim of this study was to compare changes in the intracuff pressure in disposable LMA filled with Air, Saline or 2% Lignocaine in the cuff while using nitrous oxide anaesthesia and to assess postoperative pharyngolaryngeal complications
