ABSTRACT Importance When a ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA) is removed with the child in a deep plane of anesthesia, the upper airway muscle tone and protective upper airway reflexes may be obtunded. Objective To determine whether the supine or lateral position is safer for the removal of a PLMA in deeply anesthetized children by comparing the incidence of upper airway complications. Methods This randomized single‐blind comparative trial was conducted at a tertiary care hospital between January 2020 and September 2020. Forty children of the American Society of Anesthesiologists class I/II of ages 1–12 years age undergoing surgery under general anesthesia with PLMA used as the definitive airway device were recruited. Patients were randomly allocated to lateral group or supine group for PLMA removal in a deep plane of anesthesia in the lateral or supine position. The primary outcome was the number of patients experiencing one or more upper airway complications and the secondary outcomes were incidence of individual respiratory adverse effects and of severe airway complications. Results The incidence of airway complications was 30% in the supine group and 20% in the lateral group (P = 0.6641). Incidence of laryngospasm, immediate stridor, and excessive secretions were similar. Early stridor and oxygen desaturation were higher in the supine group (P = 0.0374, P = 0.0183 respectively). Interpretation The overall incidence of upper airway complications was similar with the removal of a PLMA in the supine or lateral position in deeply anesthetized children. The incidence of oxygen desaturation and stridor were higher with PLMA removal in the supine as compared to the lateral position. |
