About this study

Official title: Comparison of Airway Placement Conditions and Postoperative Effects of Laryngoscope-guided Laryngeal Mask Placement Methods in Sniffing Position in Geriatric Edentulous Patients

different ways of airway management in elective minor surgeries of geriatric patients

Read the detailed description

The investigators will used two different ways of pro-seal laryngeal mask insertion technique (laryngoscopy- guided technique or the standard technique) in elective minor surgeries of geriatric toothless patients.

The investigators will record the respiratory dynamics, heartbeat, systolic, diastolic, mean arterial pressures every 5 minutes during surgery. The investigators will record the laryngeal mask insertion time and oropharyngeal leakage pressure. The investigators will evaluate the placement of a laryngeal mask according to young criteria. The development and severity of coughing, retching, laryngospasm, extremity, and head movement during laryngeal mask placement will be recorded. Bloodstains, sore throat, hoarseness will be recorded on the mask that may develop due to laryngeal mask placement. The investigators will use the Briacombe scoring and Campbell category system to assess the position of laryngeal mask airway devices.

What is being measured

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

  1. laryngeal mask placement

    To evaluate the best fiberoptic bronchoscopic view while insertion of pro-Seal laryngeal mask either in a classic way, or with the help of laryngoscope. The fibreoptic evaluation Includes 4, only vocal cords visible; 3, vocal cords plus posterior epiglottis visible 2, vocal cords plus anterior epiglottis visible

    ; 1, vocal cords not seen.

    Measured: First minute after laryngeal mask insertio

  2. complications of laryngeal mask insertion

    complications like sore throat, hoarseness, nausea, and vomiting or Bloodstain on the laryngeal mask.

    we simply asked patients about them

    Measured: Complications will be evaluated within 1 hour after patient recovery.

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. hemodynamic response

    Heart rate will record before LMA and post LMA used at first minute

    Measured: Before putting on the Layngeal mask, it will record in beats / minute at 5 minutes for 1 minute and 20 minutes after wearing

  2. insertion time

    Insertion time was defined from the time of removal of the facemask to the time of the appearance of first capnography upstroke. we assessed this outcome stopwatch

    Measured: The investigator will record the insertion time in seconds from the moment the laryngeal mask airway passes the incisors until the end-tidal CO2 is visible.

  3. respiratory dynamics

    The investigator will record the (tidal volume(ml) value from the mechanical ventilator after wearing the laryngeal mask.

    Measured: The first minute after the laryngeal mask insertion, and every 5 minutes thereafter up to the 20th minute

  4. hemodynamic responce

    mean blood pressure will record before LMA and post LMA used at first minute

    Measured: Before putting on the Layngeal mask, it will record in mm Hg at 5 minutes for 1 minute and 20 minutes after wearing

  5. oxygen saturation

    saturation will record before LMA and post LMA used at first minute

    Measured: Before putting on the Layngeal mask, it will record in %SpO2 at 5 minutes for 1 minute and 20 minutes after wearing

  6. respiratory dynamics

    The investigator will record the peak airway pressure (cmH2O) value from the mechanical ventilator after wearing the laryngeal mask.

    Measured: The first minute after the laryngeal mask insertion, and every 5 minutes thereafter up to the 20th minute

  7. respiratory dynamics

    The investigator will record the end-tidal CO2(mmHg) value from the mechanical ventilator after wearing the laryngeal mask.

    Measured: The first minute after the laryngeal mask insertion, and every 5 minutes thereafter up to the 20th minute
