Summary

The Streamlined linear of the pharryngeal airway(SLIPA) is a new type of supralaryngeal airway(SLA), use of which has increased because it is inexpensive, disposable and easy to insert. Although other SLA(eg, laryngeal mask airway(LMA), laryngeal tube) have been used safely in elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy, there are few reports compare the characteristics of the SLIPA or proseal LMA(LMA-P) when used in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The aim of this study is to compare the quantitative clinical performances of the SLIPA with the LMA-P with regard to the incidence of gastric insufflations when used in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study compares two devices used during surgery to keep your airway open while you are under general anaesthesia for a keyhole gallbladder removal (laparoscopic cholecystectomy). The two devices are called the ProSeal Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA-P) and the Streamlined Liner of the Pharynx Airway (SLIPA). The main question is which device is less likely to cause air to accidentally enter the stomach during surgery, which is known as gastric insufflation. You may be eligible if: - You are aged 18 to 80 years old - You are in good to moderate general health (ASA class 1 or 2) - You are scheduled for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia You may NOT be eligible if: - You have diabetes - You have gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) - You have a neurological or musculoskeletal condition affecting the airway - You are obese (BMI over 30) - You have a history of or features suggesting a difficult airway Talk to your doctor about whether this trial might be right for you.

Insertion of SLIPA Insertion technique is based on manufacturer's recommendation. To insert the device, the mouth is opened and the toe of the SLIPA is put into the mouth and advanced towards the posterior pharyngeal arch. At this stage, a 'jaw thrust' is applied by left hand and SLIPA is advanced caudally until the SLIPA slip into correct position. Insertion may takes about 30 second and SLIPA may be used during the operation.
