Trial summary

The Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) has been used widely for different patients and found to be highly safe for adult and pediatric patients. However, the LMA has some limitations and weaknesses (e.g. more insertion attempts in 5% to 10 % of all cases. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of the New Perilaryngeal Airway (CobraPLA™) in Comparison With the Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA™) to Improve Oropharyngeal Leak Pressure Among Obese and Overweight Patients

The Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) has been used widely for different patients and found to be highly safe for adult and pediatric patients. However, the LMA has some limitations and weaknesses (e.g. more insertion attempts in 5% to 10 % of all cases. Despite the easy insertion of the LMA, it is crucial to check correct placement of the LMA airway.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Oropharyngeal leak

    Measured: Up to 1 hours

  2. Time to intubation

    Time to intubation was measured from inserting of the device to the patient's month while connecting the breathing circuit

    Measured: Up to 1 hours

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. successful intubation attempt

    A successful intubation attempt was recognized if: the breathing circuit connected, the EtCO2 trace was revealed, and no air leak was detected at airway pressures of 15 cm H2O

    Measured: Up to 1 hours

  2. incidence of sore throat

    Measured: Up to 1 hours

  3. incidence of dysphasia

    Measured: Up to 1 hours

  4. incidence of postoperative blood staining on mask

    Measured: Up to 1 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing COBRA and LMA in people with Obesity, run by Qazvin University Of Medical Sciences.

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 6 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 8 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 (time frame: Up to 1 hours). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 8 May 2015.
