Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: Oropharyngeal leak pressure
Ambu AuraOnce
|
Device: Ambu AuraOnce
Oropharyngeal leak pressure was determined by closing the expiratory valve of the anaesthesia breathing system and a fixed gas flow of 3 l minute-1. The airway pressure at which an equilibrium was reached was noted (maximum allowed 40 cm H2O). |
Experimental: Fiberoptic position
Ambu AuraGain
|
Device: Ambu AuraGain
The airway tube view was scored using an established scoring system (4=only vocal cords visible; 3=vocal cords plus posterior epiglottis; 2=vocal cords plus anterior epiglottis; 1=vocal cords not seen) |
- oropharyngeal leak pressure [ Time Frame: 5 min ]
- fiberoptic position [ Time Frame: 5 min ]
