Comparison of the Baska® mask with the single‐use laryngeal mask airway in low‐risk female patients undergoing ambulatory surgery

Summary We compared the Baska® mask with the single‐use classic laryngeal mask airway (cLMA) in 150 females at low risk for difficult tracheal intubation in a randomised, controlled clinical trial. We found that median (IQR [range]) seal pressure was significantly higher with the Baska mask compared...

Summary:Summary We compared the Baska® mask with the single‐use classic laryngeal mask airway (cLMA) in 150 females at low risk for difficult tracheal intubation in a randomised, controlled clinical trial. We found that median (IQR [range]) seal pressure was significantly higher with the Baska mask compared with the cLMA (40 (34–40 [16–40]) vs 22 (18–25 [14–40]) cmH2O, respectively, p
