“…One study found that no gastric distention was caused by laparoscopic cholecystectomy with properly placed PLMA, which ventilates in equal affectivity to the endotracheal tube 8 . Carron et al described one patient with severe pulmonary fibrosis who had elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy; they ensured airway control with LMAS and stated that there was less airway resistance 9 .…”

“…In pulmonary fibrosis, the lung compliance is decreased to a small extent, but this is offset by a reduction in airway resistance. [5,6] Hypotension and hemodynamic instability are commonly associated with the sitting position during anaesthesia, resulting primarily from a sudden decrease in intrathoracic blood volume. [7] To counteract this physiological response, anaesthesiologists frequently reduce the concentration of inhaled anaesthetic, exposing patients to potential risk of being inadequately anaesthetised.…”
