Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Rate of optimum placement of the laryngeal mask airway in the first attempt by the two methods â?? LMA placement will be deemed optimal when adequate chest expansion and a square wave capnogram is obtained.Timepoint: From the end of surgery till the end of anaesthesia | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Ease of insertion of laryngeal mask airway,Time taken for successful placement of LMA,Number of attempts required to insert airway,Need for re-intubation,Maintenance of airway and ventilation,Changes in blood pressure and heart rate,Haemodynamic changes (Change in rate pressure product during emergence),Coughing - Presence/ severity of cough prior to and during removal of airway device and 5 minutes after removal of airway device Timepoint: From the end of surgery till the end of anaesthesia | — |
