Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Change in the following haemodynamic parameters 1.1. Pulse rate per minute 1.2. Blood pressure as measured as measured by non invasive automated monitor. (BPL EXCELO) [Immediately before and after LMA insertion]

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Upper airway trauma by visual inspection of the device and the oropharynx [During LMA insertion and LMA removal ] Desaturation (SpO2 <90%), as determined by a AS/3 Compact Anesthesia Monitor [During LMA insertion.] Patient movement on a 2 point scale (present/absent) [During LMA insertion.] Ease of insertion on a 5 point Likert scale (1=very easy and 5=very difficult) [During LMA insertion.] Gagging: On clinical observation [During LMA insertion.] Laryngospasm: On clinical observation [During LMA insertion.] Post-operative sore throat: on a 10 point visual analogue scale / verbal rating numerical pain score (0=no pain and 10 worst pain imaginable) [ During LMA removal.]
