Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2017
Participant is being asked to take part in this study because participant is going to have surgery that requires general anesthesia (in which participant is unconscious for the procedure). During surgery, anesthesiologists often place a supraglottic airway device (SGAD). An SGAD is a device that helps participant breathe and may help the anesthesiologist put a breathing tube in participant\'s airway while participant is asleep during surgery. There are many different kinds of SGADs that are readily available for use by anesthesiologists during surgery. The SGADs that are being studied are the Ambu Auragain and the Teleflex LMA Protector. The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the effectiveness of both devices. This is an investigational study. Both of the SGADs that are being used on this study are FDA approved and are frequently used for the surgery that participant is going to have. It is investigational to compare the 2 devices. Up to 50 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
