NCT01314248

Brief Summary

The air-Q® intubating laryngeal airway (ILA) is an supraglottic device used for both airway maintenance during routine anesthesia and as a conduit for tracheal intubation for patients with a difficult airway. The investigators goal for this study is to compare the performance of the ILA with the current standard of care the standard LMA during routine anesthesia.
