-
Continuous monitoring and stepwise control of laryngeal mask airway cuff pressure to reduce throat problems after surgery in older adults
This trial will test whether continuously monitoring and progressively adjusting the inflatable laryngeal mask airway (LMA) cuff pressure reduces postoperative sore throat and swallowing problems in people aged 60 or older having elective non-thoracic, non-head-and-neck surgery.
-
Supraglottic airway to support breathing in premature infants born at 29–33 weeks
We will try using a supraglottic airway to give positive-pressure breaths right after birth to premature infants born at 29 0/7–33 6/7 weeks who need help breathing.
-
Using a supraglottic airway to help newborns breathe at birth
This project will test whether teaching and equipping delivery teams to use a supraglottic airway helps newborns who need breathing support get effective ventilation sooner.
-
Comparing i-gel and classic LMA insertion in different head positions for people over 75
This will test whether the i-gel or classic LMA is easier and faster to insert in different head positions for people over 75 having elective urological surgery under general anesthesia.
