Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Oropharyngeal (airway) leak pressure - Initial

    The airway pressure at which an airway leak is observed after successful placement of the supraglottic airway

    Assessed intraoperatively at the time of confirmed device placement

  • Oropharyngeal (airway) leak pressure - 10 Minutes

    The airway pressure at which an airway leak is observed 10 minutes after successful placement of the supraglottic airway

    Assessed intraoperatively, 10 minutes after the initial confirmed placement of the device

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Time for Successful Placement of the Supraglottic Airway

    Assessed intraoperatively at the time of confirmed device placement

  • Number of attempts to placement of Supraglottic Airway

    Assessed intraoperatively at the time of confirmed device placement

  • Fiberoptic Grade of Laryngeal View through Supraglottic Airway

    Assessed intraoperatively at the time of confirmed device placement

  • Gastric Tube Insertion Ease of Placement

    Assessed intraoperatively at the time of confirmed gastric tube placement

  • Gastric Tube Insertion Time

    Assessed intraoperatively at the time of confirmed gastric tube placement

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Ambu AuraGain

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects will receive the Ambu AuraGain size 1.5 or 2.0 based on manufacturer guidelines

Device: Ambu AuraGain (size 1.5 or size 2.0)

LMA Supreme

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subjects will receive the Ambu AuraGain size 1.5 or 2.0 based on manufacturer guidelines

Device: LMA Supreme (size 1.5 or size 2.0)

Interventions

The device will be inserted and timed. A leak pressure test will be performed after successful insertion and after 10 minutes. The larynx will be visualized by placing a fiberoptic bronchoscope through the device. A gastric tube will be inserted through the device and timed.
