Investigation of the Effect on Postoperative Sore Throat of Insertion of Laryngeal Mask Airways Stored at Different Temperatures
When the instruction guidelines of classical laryngeal mask airways (cLMAs) were examined, it was seen that they should be stored between 10 °C and 25 °C. The purpose of this study is to test the effect on postoperative sore throat of LMA stored at different temperatures. The patients to be admitted for elective surgery will be divided into two groups. Patients in Group L will be ventilated with a classical laryngeal mask airways (cLMA) stored at 10 °C to 12 °C (low temperatures), while patients in Group R will be ventilated with a classical laryngeal mask airways (cLMA) stored at 22 °C to 25 °C (room temperatures). Postoperative complaints of sore throat, dysphagia, dysphonia and cough at 0, 1, 6, 12 and 24 hours will be questioned and noted.
• Under elective conditions, between 18-65 years of age, those who will receive general anesthesia and ventilation will be provided with a laryngeal mask airways
• ASA I-III risk group
• Patients who agreed to be included in the study
• Estimated duration of anesthesia lasting between 1 hour and 2 hours
