Suction Catheter-Guided Technique of ProSeal™ Laryngeal Mask Airway Insertion has a Lower Incidence of Trauma and Sore Throat Compared With a Standard Introducer Tool : A Randomized Controlled Trial

Copyright © by the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists..

ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA) insertion is often difficult. Suction catheter-guided PLMA insertion was compared with the standard introducer tool-assisted technique. One hundred sixty female patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic procedures under general anesthesia were randomized into two groups-the suction catheter group (Group SC) and the introducer tool group (Group IT). First-attempt success rate, insertion time, manipulation required, incidence of trauma, and incidence and severity of throat discomfort were compared. PLMA was inserted successfully in the first attempt in 72 of 80 patients in Group SC and in 67 of 80 patients in Group IT (P = .241). Time for successful insertion was 17.31 ± 6.50 seconds in Group SC and 22.65 ± 7.17 seconds in Group IT (P = .001). Manipulation to get a proper fit was required in 9 of 80 patients in Group SC compared with 19 of 80 patients in Group IT (P = .037). Minor airway trauma was noted in 11% of patients in Group SC and 28% of patients in Group IT (P = .001). The incidence and severity of sore throat was significantly lower with the suction catheter than with the introducer tool. Suction catheter-guided PLMA insertion requires less time, fewer manipulations, and results in lower incidence and severity of sore throat than with the introducer tool. Both techniques have a similar first-attempt success rate.
