Abstract :

Background: We want to evaluate the effectiveness of Proseal LMA over endotracheal tube for laparoscopic procedures, by assessing the hemodynamic changes and gastric distension. Study design: It is a randomized prospective comparative study conducted in 40 adult patients of either sex between the age group of 18 – 60 years. Patients are randomized into 2 groups such as Group I – Endotracheal tube & Group II – Proseal LMA and compared based on hemodynamic changes like heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure and gastric distension. The differences in the proportions are tested for statistical significance using non–parametric Chi–square test for variables measured on nominal scale. When testing for two factors, the Mann–Whitney “U” test or Wilcoxon two sample test is used. For variables measured on a continuous scale, when testing for two groups, Student “t” test is used to test for statistical significance in the differences of the two means. Results: The PLMA group maintained better haemodynamic stability than ETT group throughout the procedure. There was no significant difference between the two groups based on gastric distension score. Conclusion: On compå Proseal LMA and endotracheal tube for laparoscopic surgeries, it was found that the hemodynamics were more stable when Proseal LMA was used. Proseal LMA was as effective as endotracheal tube during positive pressure ventilation in preventing gastric distension and aspiration when correctly placed.
