The Effect of Placement of Proseal Laryngeal Mask Airway With C-Mac Videolaryngoscopy

The ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (ProSeal LMA; Intavent Orthofix, Maidenhead, UK) is a device with a double cuff to improve the seal and a drain tube to help prevent aspiration and gastric insufflation, facilitate passage of a gastric tube, and provide information about malposition. The manufacturer recommends inserting the ProSealTM LMA using digital manipulation or with an introducer tool, but both these techniques have lower success rates than the classic LMA. This prospective study that will investigated the usefulness of the C-MAC videolaryngoscopy for inserting a PLMA in anesthetized non-paralyzed patients and compared it with the index finger.
