Background And Aims: The objective of this prospective randomized blinded study was to assess the safety and efficacy of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) Supreme as compared with the LMA Proseal.
Material And Methods: A total of 60 patients were randomised into two groups to either receive a Proseal LMA (PLMA) or Supreme LMA (SLMA) for airway management. The primary outcome was to measure oropharyngeal leak pressure (OLP) in both groups. The secondary outcomes were the measurement of insertion time, insertion success rate, fibreoptic grading, intracuff pressure, ease of ventilation, and airway pressure on standard ventilatory settings and postoperative complications.
Results: Intracuff pressure increase after 60 minutes of induction was significantly higher in the PLMA group (PLMA 97.43 ± 11.03 cm of HO and SLMA 75.17 ± 8.95 cm of HO). OLP was recorded after device insertion, after 30 min and after 60 min in each group and was found to be 28.71 ± 2.97, 30.93 ± 2.87, and 31.93 ± 2.72 cm of HO in PLMA and 24.84 ± 2.08, 26.73 ± 2.26, and 27.95 ± 2.55 cm of HO in SLMA group, respectively. The mean OLP with the SLMA was significantly (p=<.001) lower than PLMA. All the other parameters were comparable in both groups.
Conclusion: PLMA is better than SLMA as airway device to ventilate at higher airway pressure in paralyzed adult patients. On the basis of our study, we recommend Proseal over Supreme LMA.

Background: Second-generation supraglottic airway devices (SGAs) are pivotal in airway management, with the ability to accommodate gastric tube (GT) insertion. However, research on GT insertion with SGAs under controlled conditions is limited. This study aimed to evaluate the GT insertion performance of SGAs using a manikin.

Article Synopsis
- This review examines the effectiveness of supraglottic airway devices (SGA) for managing airways in pregnant patients undergoing caesarean sections, highlighting the challenges posed by physiological changes during pregnancy.
- It discusses the standard practice of rapid sequence induction and tracheal intubation, while also noting evidence that second-generation SGA devices can be effective and well-tolerated in specific cases.
- The analysis included 13 manuscripts with data from 7722 patients, reporting a low incidence of complications, with only a few failures in SGA insertion and no instances of pulmonary aspiration.

Supraglottic airway (SGA) is an alternative to endotracheal intubation, however endotracheal intubation is often essential. One method to convert from an SGA to an endotracheal tube (ETT) is utilizing the SGA as a conduit for fiberoptic-guided advancement of an Aintree catheter (airway exchange catheter), and exchange of the SGA for an ETT. In this prospective randomized study, we compared two SGA devices in facilitating this exchange.

Article Synopsis
- * It measured oropharyngeal leak pressure (OLP) and other performance metrics, finding that the SaCoVLM had a higher OLP and a better first-attempt success rate at 91.4% compared to 77.1% for the Supreme group.
- * Overall, both types of LMA provided adequate ventilation, but the SaCoVLM performed better in terms of OLP and insertion success during the study involving 70 elective surgery patients.
