Gastric insufflation with and without an inserted gastric tube in second-generation laryngeal mask airways: A randomized controlled cross-over trial.
Placement of a gastric tube through the gastric channel of a second-generation laryngeal mask airway, independent of the cuff-type, increases the risk of gastric insufflation. Flow over the gastric channel indicate a higher risk of gastric insufflation and gastric insufflation may increase the risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting.
