Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if two person lateral rotation technique of LMA insertion is more successful than the standard technique in achieving effective ventilation on the first introduction of the LMA .The main questions it aims to answer are: Does two person lateral rotation technique of LMA insertion lower the number of times needed to inesrt the LMA ? Researchers will compare two person lateral rotation technique of LMA insertion to standard technique to see if it is more successful Participants will be subjected to the two way of LMA insertion

Conditions

LMA; Ventilation

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• First-attempt insertion success rate, defined as successful placement achieving effective ventilation on the first introduction of the LMA into the oral cavity

  1 minute after LMA insertion

Secondary Outcomes (5)

• Insertion time

  20-90 seconds from picking up the LMA to be inserted in the mouth

• Number of attempts

  2-3 minutes after induction of anesthesia

• Need for manipulations

  1-2 minutes after induction of anesthesia

• Oropharyngeal leak pressure (OLP)

  1-2 minutes after insertion of LMA

• Complications:

  immediate after removal of LMA ,1,2,4,24 hours. post operative
