Abstract :

 Supraglottic airway devices have become popular fixture and commonly used to manage airway in children because they are typically easy to use and they avoid problems speciļ¬c to tracheal intubation. We did a prospective, randomized; single blind study compå clinical performance of paediatric I–gel and classic LMA (cLMA). The study included 60 patients, aged 1–12 years, 30patients   in each group those who were scheduled for planned surgery under general anaesthesia. Number of insertion attempts, ease of insertion and intra–operative and post–operative complications were observed. Pulse rate and blood pressure were recorded done before and after induction and at 3 and 5 minutes after insertion of device. We observed that compared to classic LMA, I–gel is easy to insert while number of attempt required and hemodynamic parameters are comparable in both groups. Complications were minor and comparable.
