Jiancheng dual-channel vs. i-gel laryngeal mask airway for fiberoptic bronchoscopy: A randomized trial

Anaesth Crit Care Pain MedPublished Randomised controlled trial

Authors' conclusion

The Jiancheng dual-channel LMA is associated with higher first-attempt success for airway insertion and bronchoscopy compared to the i-gel LMA, warranting consideration for broader clinical application.

Study context

Population
Patients undergoing fiberoptic bronchoscopy under remimazolam besylate, ciprofol and sufentanil anaesthesia
Participants

Comparison
Jiancheng dual-channel laryngeal mask airway (LMA) vs i-gel LMA
