Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study[Clinical study of the laryngeal mask in paediatric. Comparison of the LMA-ProSeal and LMA-classic].
To compare the Classic laryngeal mask airway (MLC) and the ProSeal LMA (MLP), size 2 and 2.5 in terms of ease of insertion, leak pressure and side effects during insertion and extraction in the recovery room. ⋯ MLP is as easy to use in children as the MLC. MLP has the advantage of allowing rapid access to the stomach. It seems that the MLP is safer since its correct position is confirmed by easy gastric tube insertion.
