BACKGROUNDThe I-gel is a supraglottic airway device with soft gel like non-inflatable cuff. Compared to Classical LMA, I-GEL does not require cuff inflation. I-gel works in harmony with the patient's anatomy, so that compression and displacement trauma are significantly reduced. LMA and I-gel are supraglottic airways compared to Endotracheal Tube (ETT), which is inserted inside the trachea. This study was done to determine the: 1. Intraocular pressure and 2. Haemodynamic response and compare it between I-gel insertion, classical LMA insertion and laryngoscopy with endotracheal intubation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
