Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Placement of Supraglottic Airway Devices - either I-gel or Proseal LMA under anaesthesia. Pre and Post operative strobolaryngoscopy and phonetic analysis of voice
I-gel is a newly introduced supraglottic airway device, classified as a cuff less pharyngeal sealer. After administration of general anesthesia and muscle relaxation, airway is placed in oropharynx with tip resting in the upper esophageal sphincter. Square wave capon gram and effective chest raise confirms satisfactory placement.
Intervention code [1] 287404 0
Treatment: Devices
Comparator / control treatment
Active control- Proseal LMA
Proseal LMA is among the most commonly used supraglottic airway devices during anesthesia, classified as a cuffed peri laryngeal sealer with directional sealing and drain tube for stomach. After administration of general anesthesia and muscle relaxation, airway is placed in oropharynx with tip resting in the upper esophageal sphincter. After cuff inflation and ventilation, square wave capon gram and effective chest raise confirms satisfactory placement.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 289872 0
Postopertive pharyngolaryngeal morbidity including phonatory changes
Phonatory changes are assessed perceptively by speech pathologist by classifying the voice into normal, rough, breathy and asthenia patterns. Phonetic analysis of voice is performed and jitter, shimmer and Harmonic to Noise ratio are analysed as indicators of micro instability of vocal cords
Timepoint [1] 289872 0
24 hours after surgery
Secondary outcome [1] 303447 0
Vocal cord dysfunction
Phonetic analysis of voice is done by using PRAAT software. Jitter, Shimmer and Harmonic to Noise ratio are analysed which are found to correlate with micro instability of vocal cords
Timepoint [1] 303447 0
24 hours after surgery
