About this study
Official title: A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Proseal Laryngeal Mask Airway, I-gel Airway and Laryngeal Tube Suction-D in Mechanically Ventilated Patients
The Aim of the study is to compare the clinical performance of p-LMA, i-gel and LTS-D in terms of the efficacy and safety in anaesthetized patient on Mechanical ventilation undergoing elective surgical procedure.
Read the detailed description
The study aims to draw a comparison between ProSeal LMA, i-gel and LTS-D supraglottic airway devices in terms of the efficacy and safety in anaesthetised patient on Mechanical ventilation undergoing elective surgical procedure.
Methodology: A prospective randomized control study conducted on 150 patients undergoing elective surgical procedure under general anaesthesia at Dr Sushila Tiwari Hospital and Government medical college, Haldwani.
Following detailed pre-anaesthetic check-up, informed written consent was taken from patient fulfilling the required criteria. Patients were randomly allocated into 3 groups namely Group I (i-gel, n=50), Group P (p-LMA, n=50) and Group L (LTS-D, n=50) by online generated randomization.
Standard general anaesthesia protocol was followed and once adequate depth was achieved i-gel or p-LMA or LTS-D appropriate for weight or / and height was selected and inserted. An effective airway was confirmed and device was fixed from maxilla to maxilla.
The three groups were compared with respect to number of Insertion attempts, ease of insertion of device, time taken for placement of device, airway sealing pressure, ease and number of attempts of gastric tube placement and complications noted if any.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing ProSeal Laryngeal mask airway, Laryngeal Tube Suction- Disposable and i-gel in people with Airway Morbidity, run by Government Medical College, Haldwani.
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 24 Aug 2016. 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.
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?
Number of Insertion attempts (time frame: 10 mins). 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 24 Aug 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
