Abstrakt: Background: Anaesthesia is safely administered by an effective airway management. Supra Glottic Airway devices are safe alternatives to Endotracheal Intubation, as they do not require Laryngoscopy and hence hemodynamic response can be avoided. Present study was aimed to compare LMA Classic versus I GEL in patients posted for elective surgeries under general anaesthesia at a tertiary hospital. Material and Methods: Present study was single center, prospective, comparative study, conducted patients of both sex, aged between 15 to 50 years, elective surgical procedures under general anaesthesia, Mallampati grade I and II, ASA grade I and II, duration of surgery less than 1 hr., 100 patients divided into two groups randomly groups with 50 patients in each group . Results: There was no significant difference in the mean age, gender & body weight of the patients between Group 1 and Group 2. The difference in ease of insertion was not statistically significant between the two groups(p=0.274). The difference in number of attempts at insertion was not statistically significant between the two groups (p= 0.445). The mean duration of insertion of c-LMA in group 1 patients and I-gel in group 2 patients were 23.44 ± 6.54080 and 17.32 ± 3.08015 seconds respectively and was statistically significant. (p=0.0001). Lip injury was noted in 2 patients in group 1 (c-LMA) and in 3 patients in group 2 (I-gel). 1 case each in c-LMA and I-gel group had blood stain on the device on removal. 4 patients in c LMA group and 2 patients in I-gel group developed transient sore throat postoperatively. However, the incidence was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Time taken for insertion was significantly less in I-gel compared to c-LMA. There was no significant difference in ease of insertion, hemodynamic parameters and adverse effects between I-gel and c-LMA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
