ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the effect between i-gel mask and SHPA mask in the airway management of general anesthesia.Methods Sixty patients of general anesthesia with ASA I or Ⅱ were randomly divided into two groups:i-gel mask group (30 cases) and SLIPA group(30 cases).After intubation and general anesthesia,fiberoptic bronchoscopy was used to detect and evaluate.The peak airway pressure,mean airway pressure,condition of the laryngeal mask intubation,time of intubation,time of extubation,time of recovery and the side effect occurrence of extubation were recorded.Results The time of anesthesia,time of operation,time of extubation,time of recovery,achievement ratio of first time,achievement ratio of second time,time of intubation,peak airway pressure and mean airway pressure had no significant difference between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The airway seal pressure in i-gel mask group was significantly higher than that in SL1PA group [(29 + 6) cm H2O (1 c m H2O =0.098 kPa) vs.(23 ± 4) cm H2O] (P ＜ 0.05).For the grade of fiberoptic bronchoscopy in i-gel mask group,there was 27 patients in I grade,3 patients in Ⅱ grade.But in SL1PA group,there was 3 patients in I grade,4 patients in Ⅱ grade,13 patients in Ⅲ grade,10 patients in ⅣVgrade.There was significant difference between two groups (P ＜ 0.05).There were none of regurgitation in two groups.Conclusions The i-gel mask and SLIPA mask can provide the same effective ventilation.The i-gel mask has higher airway seal pressure,less side effect during the intubation and extubation,and have better airway management of general anesthesia.
