Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Determine the appropriate time for LMA SupremeTM supraglottic airway device insertion after induction of anaesthesia with IV Propofol.Timepoint: 30/60/90 seconds after induction with propofol as per the group allocated to the patient—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Determine the incidence of improper placement of LMA at all the three time intervals. 2. Determine the extent of adverse response to airway manipulation like coughing, gagging, laryngospasm and patient movements at all the three time intervals of LMA insertion.Timepoint: 30/60/90 seconds after induction with propofol as per the group allocated to the patient—
