Trial summary

The LMA Supreme is a new extraglottic airway device which brings together features of the LMA ProSeal, Fastrach and Unique. We test the hypothesis that ease of insertion, oropharyngeal leak pressure, fiberoptic position and ease of gastric tube placement differ between the LMA ProSeal and the LMA Supreme in paralyzed… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Supreme Laryngeal Mask Airway. A Randomized, Crossover Study With the ProSeal Laryngeal Mask Airway in Paralyzed, Anesthetized Patients

The LMA Supreme is a new extraglottic airway device which brings together features of the LMA ProSeal, Fastrach and Unique. We test the hypothesis that ease of insertion, oropharyngeal leak pressure, fiberoptic position and ease of gastric tube placement differ between the LMA ProSeal and the LMA Supreme in paralyzed anesthetized patients

Read the detailed description

The LMA Supreme is a new extraglottic airway device which brings together features of both the LMA ProSeal (high seal cuff, gastric access and bite block - to facilitate ventilation, airway protection and airway obstruction, respectively), the LMA Fastrach (fixed cuve tube and guiding handle - to facilitate insertion and fixation) and the LMA Unique (single use - prevention of disease transmission). The new features are that the airway tube incorporates a drain tube within its lumen to shorten and straighten its path, it is oval-shaped to match the shape of the mouth and to reduce rotation in the pharynx, the inner cuff has been strengthened to prevent airway obstruction from infolding and epiglottic fins have been added to prevent airway obstruction from epiglottic downfolding. In the following randomized, crossover study, we test the hypothesis that ease of insertion, oropharyngeal leak pressure, fiberoptic position and ease of gastric tube placement differ between the LMA ProSeal and the LMA Supreme in paralyzed, anesthetized patients

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing LMA Supreme and LMA ProSeal in people with Paralysis, run by Medical University Innsbruck at 1 site in Austria.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jul 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Austria. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Oropharyngeal leak pressure (time frame: 5 min). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Jul 2008.
