9 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The aim of this randomized prospective study is to compare two single-use laryngeal mask airways with a provision of a gastric drain tube allowing for evacuation of gastric contents, the i-gel and the LMA Supreme, in pediatric patients undergoing positive pressure ventilation. The investigators hypothesize that airway leak pressures with the i-gel will not be significantly different clinically (higher) when compared with the LMA Supreme.
The aim of this randomized prospective study is to compare two single-use laryngeal mask airways the LMA Unique and the LMA Supreme, in pediatric patients. The investigators hypothesize that airway leak pressures with the LMA Supreme will be superior to the LMA Unique.
The purpose of this research study is to compare difference between breathing by oneself or with the partial help from an anesthesia machine in children under general anesthesia.
A prospective study designed to access changes in the intracuff pressure of a laryngeal mask airway (LMA) or cuffed endotracheal tube (cETT) during placement of an esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) probe during an EGD in the pediatric population.
The investigators in this study want to see how overweight/obese children who undergo elective surgery requiring airway management react to general anesthesia. They believe that the incidence of perioperative respiratory adverse events (PRAE) associated with Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) use during general anesthesia in overweight/obese children is lower than that associated with endotracheal intubation (ETT).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is a clinically relevant difference in airway leak pressures between the Ambu AuraGain and the Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) Supreme.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is a clinically relevant difference in time to tracheal intubation when using fiberoptic bronchoscope as a guide to intubate through the Ambu Aura-i or air-Q ILA.
The aim of this randomized prospective study is to compare two laryngeal mask airways with a provision for evacuation of gastric contents, the LMA Proseal and The investigators hypothesize that airway leak pressures with the LMA Proseal will be significantly different (higher) when compared with the LMA Supreme.
The air-Q® intubating laryngeal airway (ILA) is an supraglottic device used for both airway maintenance during routine anesthesia and as a conduit for tracheal intubation for patients with a difficult airway. The investigators goal for this study is to compare the performance of the ILA with the current standard of care the standard LMA during routine anesthesia.
