Cholecystitis
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of using a video laryngeal mask for airway management in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Detailed description
The investigators will compare the time required to secure the airway when inserting a video laryngeal mask (LMA) versus performing endotracheal intubation.
Interventions
The airway is secured with a video laryngeal mask airway.
The participant is intubated with an endotracheal tube via direct laryngoscopy.

Inclusion criteria
* Patients over 19 years old * Patients planned for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy

| Postoperative sore throat | 1 hour after end of operation | 4-point scale, 0 = no sore throat; 1 = mild sore throat (complaints of sore throat only on asking); 2 = moderate sore throat (complaints of sore throat on his/her own); 3 = severe sore throat (change of voice or hoarseness, associated with throat pain) |
| Postoperative hoarseness | 1 hour after end of operation | 4-point scale, 0 = no hoarseness; 1 = mild hoarseness (complaints of hoarseness only on asking); 2 = moderate hoarseness (complaints of hoarseness on his/her own); 3 = severe hoarseness (hoarseness associated with throat pain) |
