Can J Anaesth 2024; 71:66-76. [PMID: 38017196 DOI: 10.1007/s12630-023-02648-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/12/2023] [Indexed: 11/30/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The effect of head rotation on supraglottic airway (SGA) oropharyngeal leak pressure (OPLP) has not been well elucidated. The aim of this study was to help clarify which SGA device provides higher OPLP at head-rotated position. METHODS Patients who underwent elective surgery under general anesthesia were enrolled and randomly divided into laryngeal mask airway (LMA®) ProSeal™ and i-gel® groups. The allocated SGA device was inserted under anesthesia. The primary outcome was OPLP, and secondary outcomes were ventilation score, expiratory tidal volume, and maximum pressure under volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) with an inspiratory tidal volume of 10 mL·kg-1 ideal body weight and fibreoptic view of the vocal cords at 0°, 30°, and 60° head rotation. RESULTS Data from 78 and 76 patients were analyzed in the LMA ProSeal and i-gel groups, respectively. The mean (standard deviation) OPLP of the LMA ProSeal was significantly higher than that of the i-gel at the 60° head-rotated position (LMA ProSeal, 20.4 [6.5] vs i-gel, 16.9 [7.8] cm H2O; difference in means, 3.6; adjusted 95% confidence interval, 0.5 to 6.6; adjusted P = 0.02, adjusted for six comparisons). The maximum pressure under VCV at 60° head rotation was significantly higher in the LMA ProSeal group than in the i-gel group. The expiratory tidal volume of the LMA ProSeal did not significantly change with head rotation and was significantly higher than that of the i-gel at 60° head rotation. Ventilation score, fibreoptic view of the vocal cords, and complications were not significantly different between the ProSeal and i-gel groups. CONCLUSIONS The LMA ProSeal provides higher OPLP than the i-gel at a 60° head-rotated position under general anesthesia.

[PMID: 37884591 PMCID: PMC10603072 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-45631-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2023] [Accepted: 10/21/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023] Open
Abstract
The supraglottic airway (SGA) is widely used. I-gel Plus is a next-generation i-gel with some improvements, including facilitation of fiberoptic tracheal intubation (FOI). To compare the performance of i-gel Plus and standard i-gel as conduits for FOI, a Thiel-embalmed cadaveric study was conducted. Twenty-two anesthesiologists were enrolled as operators in Experiment 1. The i-gel Plus and standard i-gel were inserted into one cadaver, and the FOI was performed through each SGA. The primary outcome was time required for FOI. The secondary outcomes were the number of attempts and visual analog scale (VAS) score for difficulty in FOI. Moreover, fiberoptic views of the vocal cords in each SGA were assessed by an attending anesthesiologist using nine cadavers in Experiment 2. The percentage of glottic opening (POGO) score without fiberscope tip upward flexion and upward angle of the fiberscope tip to obtain a 100% POGO score were evaluated as secondary outcomes. The time for FOI through i-gel Plus was significantly shorter than that through standard i-gel (median (IQR), i-gel Plus: 30.3 (25.4-39.0) s, vs standard i-gel: 54.7 (29.6-135.0) s; median of differences, 24.4 s; adjusted 95% confidence interval, 3.0-105.7; adjusted P = 0.040). Although the number of attempts for successful FOI was not significantly different, the VAS score for difficulty in the i-gel Plus group was significantly lower (easier) than that in the standard i-gel group. Moreover, i-gel Plus required a significantly smaller upward angle of the fiberscope tip to obtain a 100% POGO score. FOI can be performed more easily using i-gel Plus than using standard i-gel because of the improved fiberoptic visibility of vocal cords.

Comparison between LMA ProSeal and I-gel airway in anesthetized patients on spontaneous ventilation during daycare procedures: A prospective randomized study. Natl J Maxillofac Surg 2023; 14:79-85. [PMID: 37273426 PMCID: PMC10235738 DOI: 10.4103/njms.njms_500_21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2021] [Revised: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/25/2022] [Indexed: 06/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Background General anesthesia remains the most popular technique for ambulatory surgeries with patients, surgeons, and anesthesia providers. The supraglottic airway (SGA) devices result in fewer incidences of sore throat, laryngospasm, coughing, and hoarseness as compared to inserting a tracheal tube. This study was conducted to compare two second-generation SGA devices, LMA ProSeal and I-gel airway, in anesthetized patients on spontaneous ventilation during daycare procedures to establish the superior SGA device. Methodology This prospective randomized study was done on 90 patients of either sex aged 15-60 years, ASA grade I-II, Mallampatti grade I and II, and BMI between 20 and 30 kg/m2 scheduled for elective surgeries of duration less than 90 min. Patients were randomly allocated into two groups-group A (I-gel) and group B (LMA ProSeal). Insertion parameters, hemodynamic responses, oxygenation, ventilation, peak airway pressure (PAP), and postoperative complications were recorded. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 21.0 statistical analysis software. Results Mean insertion time of LMA ProSeal was found to be significantly higher as compared to I-gel (33.27 ± 3.88 vs 18.49 ± 3.18 s; P < 0.001). No significant difference was found between the groups in the number of attempts and of operators attempted for insertion, as well as in hemodynamic response, oxygenation, and ventilation. Postoperative complications were lesser in group A. Conclusion I-gel is an easy-to-insert cuffless SGA device requiring lesser time for insertion, provides adequate ventilation with lesser postoperative complications and thus appears to be better than LMA ProSeal.

Contrast of oropharyngeal leak pressure and clinical performance of I-gel™ and LMA ProSeal™ in patients: A meta-analysis. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0278871. [PMID: 36520843 PMCID: PMC9754199 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0278871] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2022] [Accepted: 11/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Conflicting outcomes have been reported for the i-gel™ and laryngeal mask airway (LMA) ProSeal™ in children and adults during general anesthesia. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that yielded wide contrast outcomes between i-gel™ and LMA ProSeal™ were included in this meta-analysis. METHODS Two authors independently identified RCTs that compared i-gel™ with LMA ProSeal™ among patients receiving general anesthesia by performing searches in EMBASE, Cochrane, PubMed, and ScienceDirect. Discussion was adopted to resolve disagreements. Data were counted with Review Manger 5.3 and pooled by applying weighted mean difference (MD) and rlsk ratio (RR), and related 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS A total of 33 RCTs with 2605 patients were included in the meta-analysis. I-gel™ provided a considerably lower oropharyngeal leak pressure [weighted average diversity (MD) = -1.53 (-2.89, -0.17), P = 0.03], incidence of blood staining on the supraglottic airway devices [RR = 0.44, (0.28, 0.69), P = 0.0003], sore throat [RR = 0.31 (0.18, 0.52), P<0.0001], and a short insertion time [MD = -5.61 (-7.71, -3.51), P<0.00001] than LMA ProSeal™. Compared with LMA ProSeal™, i-gel™ offered a significantly higher first-insertion success rate [RR = 1.03 (1.00, 1.06), P = 0.03] and ease of insertion [RR = 1.06 (1.01, 1.11), P = 0.03]. The gastric-tube-placement first insertion rate [RR = 1.04 (0.99, 1.10), P = 0.11], laryngospasm [RR = 0.76 (0.17, 3.31), P = 0.72], and cough [RR = 1.30 (0.49, 3.44), P = 0.60] between the two devices were similar. CONCLUSIONS Both devices could achieve a good seal to provide adequate ventilation. Compared with the used LMA ProSeal™, the i-gel™ was found to have fewer complications (blood stainning, sore throat) and offers certain advantages (short insertion time, higher first-insertion success rate and ease of insertion) in patients under general anesthesia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Second-generation supraglottic airway (SGA) devices are useful for airway management during positive pressure ventilation in general anesthesia and emergency medicine. In some clinical settings, such as the anesthetic management of awake craniotomy, SGAs are used in the head-rotated position, which is required for exposure of the surgical field, although this position sometimes worsens the efficiency of mechanical ventilation with SGAs. In this study, we investigated and compared the influence of head rotation on oropharyngeal leak pressures (OPLP) of the i-gel and LMA® Supreme™, which are second-generation SGA devices. METHODS Patients who underwent elective surgery under general anesthesia were enrolled in this study and randomly divided into i-gel or LMA Supreme groups. After induction of anesthesia with muscle relaxation, the i-gel or LMA Supreme was inserted according to computerized randomization. The primary outcome was the OPLP at 0°, 30°, and 60° head rotation. The secondary outcomes were the maximum airway pressure and expiratory tidal volume when patients were mechanically ventilated using a volume-controlled ventilation mode with a tidal volume of 10 mL/kg (ideal body weight), ventilation score, and fiber-optic views of vocal cords. RESULTS Thirty-four and 36 participants were included in the i-gel and LMA Supreme groups, respectively. The OPLPs of the i-gel and LMA Supreme significantly decreased as the head rotation angle increased (mean difference [95% confidence interval], P value: i-gel; 0° vs 30°: 3.5 [2.2-4.8], P < .001; 30° vs 60°: 2.0 [0.6-3.5], P = .002; 0° vs 60°: 5.5 [3.3-7.8], P < .001, LMA Supreme; 0° vs 30°: 4.1 [2.6-5.5], P < .001; 30° vs 60°: 2.4 [1.1-3.7], P < .001; 0° vs 60°: 6.5 [5.1-8.0], P < .001). There were statistically significant differences in expiratory tidal volume and ventilation score between 0° and 60° in the i-gel group and in ventilation score between 30° and 60° in the LMA Supreme group. There was no statistically significant difference between the 2 devices in all outcome measures. The incidences of adverse events, such as hoarseness or sore throat, were not significantly different between i-gel and LMA Supreme. CONCLUSIONS Head rotation to 30° and 60° reduces OPLP with both i-gel and LMA Supreme. There is no difference in OPLP between i-gel and LMA Supreme in the 3 head rotation positions.
