NCT07828977

Brief Summary

This prospective, randomized, double-blind study aims to evaluate the effect of different degrees of neuromuscular blockade on the performance of a video laryngeal mask airway (LMA) during general anesthesia. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive rocuronium at 0, 0.3, or 0.6 mg/kg, corresponding to 0, 1, or 2 times the ED95, respectively. The primary outcome is oropharyngeal leak pressure measured after LMA insertion. Secondary outcomes include LMA insertion conditions, insertion time and number of attempts, laryngeal view, respiratory parameters, and postoperative airway-related complications.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Oropharyngeal Leak Pressure (OLP)

    Oropharyngeal leak pressure will be measured 5 minutes after successful video LMA insertion and compared among the three neuromuscular blockade groups. OLP is expressed in cmH2O.

    5 minutes after successful video LMA insertion

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Oropharyngeal Leak Pressure at Later Time Points

    15 and 30 minutes after successful video LMA insertion

  • Number of LMA Insertion Attempts

    During anesthetic induction before surgery, assessed for up to 5 minutes

  • LMA Insertion Time

    During anesthetic induction before surgery, assessed for up to 5 minutes

  • Laryngeal View Grade

    Immediately after successful video LMA insertion

  • Neuromuscular Blockade at LMA Insertion

    Immediately before video LMA insertion

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

0 × ED95 Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants receive rocuronium 0 mg/kg (0 × ED95) before video LMA insertion.

Other: Normal Saline (Rocuronium 0 mg/kg)

1 × ED95 Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants receive rocuronium 0.3 mg/kg (1 × ED95) before video LMA insertion.

Drug: Rocuronium 0.3 mg/kg

2 × ED95 Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants receive rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg (2 × ED95) before video LMA insertion.

Drug: Rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg

Interventions

Normal saline is administered intravenously as the control study drug before video LMA insertion.

0 × ED95 Group

Rocuronium 0.3 mg/kg (1 × ED95) is administered intravenously before video LMA insertion.

1 × ED95 Group

Rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg (2 × ED95) is administered intravenously before video LMA insertion.

2 × ED95 Group
