About this study

This study is designed to determine whether a functional difference exists between the laryngeal mask airway (LMA)-Classic™ and i-gel in anesthetized children who have received neuromuscular blockade.

Being tested
i-gel airway (Intersurgical Ltd., Wokingham, England), Laryngeal Mask Airway

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • i-gel airway (Intersurgical Ltd., Wokingham, England)Device

    supra-glottic airway device

  • Laryngeal Mask AirwayDevice

    supra-glottic airway device

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. airway leak pressure

    Airway leak pressure was determined by adjusting the expiratory valve of the breathing circle to 40 cmH2O (fixed fresh gas flow 3 L/min) and recording the pressure when equilibrium was reached.

    Measured: within 5 min of insertion of each device

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing i-gel airway (Intersurgical Ltd., Wokingham, England) and Laryngeal Mask Airway in people with Endotracheal Intubation, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 May 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

airway leak pressure (time frame: within 5 min of insertion of each device). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 May 2012.
