Comparing two airway devices for urological surgery
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Infections, Lungs & breathing, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two types of breathing tubes used during anesthesia to see which one results in less stomach air. It may help doctors choose the safer option for patients having urological surgery.

This study compares two soft plastic airway devices (I-Gel and Air-Q) used to help children breathe safely during surgery. The trial will determine which device works better and is safer for children aged 1–10 years.
This trial tests two different types of laryngeal masks (breathing tubes that sit in the throat) to see which works better during minor urologic procedures. It is for adults having surgery in a lying-down position (on the back or with legs in stirrups) under general anesthesia.
This study compares two types of soft breathing tubes (laryngeal mask airways) used during surgery in children ages 3–6. Researchers want to see which one works better and is safer for keeping the airway open during anesthesia.
This trial compares two devices used to help children breathe during surgery (LarySeal Pro and Ambu AuraGain). It measures how much air gets into the stomach, which can cause discomfort. It is for children aged 6–12 having short elective surgeries (1 hour or less).
This trial compares a video laryngeal mask with a breathing tube during septoplasty (nose surgery) to see which works better. If you are having this surgery, you may be able to join.
This study compares two types of breathing tubes (the I-gel and Protector) used during surgery to help you breathe. It looks at which one works better and is easier for doctors to use in certain body positions.
