Completed

• Conditions: Effective I -Gel Mask Airway Placement Technique
• Interventions: Other: i-gel placement maneuvers

• Registration Number: NCT03542032
• Lead Sponsor: Ankara Diskapi Training and Research Hospital

To compare the jaw thrust maneuver with the conventional technical methods to place the I-Gel laryngeal mask

Detailed Description

Patients who underwent elective surgery under general anesthesia and who were between the ages of 18 and 75 and who had ASA score I-II-III would be included in the study. Patients' mallampati scores, thyromental distances, mouth openings will be recorded.

Patients will be divided into two groups according to supraglottic airway insertion method.

Both groups will record the insertion time of i-gel, number of trials, operative time, placement complications.

Recorded complications (blood, laryngospasm, etc.) during insertion and removal of supraglottic airway devices will be assessed.

Patients' postoperative sore throat will be questioned and recorded.
