Objective: To determine the frequency of reflux and aspiration in children subjected to reinforced laryngeal mask during laparoscopic surgery in the Trendelenburg position, and evaluate its feasibility.
Study Design: A descriptive study.
Place And Duration Of Study: Department of Anesthesiology, Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University, from January 2017 to May 2018.
Methodology: A total of 300 children, who underwent laparoscopic high ligation of the hernial sac in the Trendelenburg position under general anesthesia, were enrolled into the present study. Reflux and aspiration were assessed by precise saliva pH to determine the pH value at laryngeal mask airway, and at sites on laryngeal mask corresponding to the larynx, face and peripheral area. Then, the presence of food residue was observed at various sites to determine whether there was reflux or aspiration during the operation.
Results: Suspected reflux (9.67%) was observed in 29 children and suspected aspiration was observed in nine children (3%). There was no definite reflux or aspiration observed in any of the children. Furthermore, the prevalence of suspected reflux was higher in children who were >3 years and overweight, compared to children with a normal body mass index and an age of <3 years.
Conclusion: With strict fasting and water deprivation, and strict selection of laryngeal mask indications before selective operation, it is feasible to apply reinforced laryngeal mask in laparoscopic surgery in the Trendelenburg position in children.

Background: The use of laryngeal masks (LM) has increased widely today, both in anesthesia and in emergency cases. LM are available as reusable and disposable. Although reuse of disposable LM is not recommended, they are reused again after decontamination with different methods in anesthesia units in some countries.

Objective: The supraglottic airway device is a viable alternative to tracheal intubation for elective surgery. To conduct a comparative analysis of the advantages and disadvantages associated with use of the Baska mask and I-gel across various dimensions.
Design: A comprehensive search was conducted across PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and other relevant databases to identify randomised controlled trials (RCTs) involving patients who used the Baska mask and I-gel.

Background: Several health care networks have fully adopted second-generation supraglottic airway (SGA) i-gel. Real-world evidence of enhanced patient safety after such practice change is lacking. We hypothesized that the implementation of i-gel compared to the previous LMA®-Unique™ would be associated with a lower risk of airway-related safety events.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided rectus sheath block (RSB) in laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair with intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM).
Methods: A total of 139 patients scheduled for laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair with IPOM were selected and randomly assigned to either the group receiving general anesthesia combined with bilateral rectus sheath block (Group GR, 71 patients) or the group receiving general anesthesia alone (Group G, 68 patients). We monitored the patients' heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) at four time points: before anesthesia induction (T1), at the start of surgery (T2), during mesh fixation (T3), and upon removal of the laryngeal mask (T4).

: Despite the known impact of propofol and remifentanil on hemodynamics and patient outcomes, there is a lack of comprehensive quantitative analysis, particularly in surgical settings, considering the influence of noxious stimuli. The aim of this study was to develop a quantitative semi-mechanistic population model that characterized the time course changes in mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) due to the effects of propofol, remifentanil, and different types of noxious stimulation related to the clinical routine. : Data from a prospective study were used; the study analyzed the effects of propofol and remifentanil general anesthesia on female patients in physical status of I-II according to the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA I-II) undergoing gynecology surgery.
