The impact of different muscle relaxation depths on the placement of the i-gel laryngeal mask and the analysis of influencing factors on postoperative sore throat: a retrospective study based on general anesthesia in adult patients

This study demonstrates that moderate muscle relaxation significantly enhances i-gel LMA insertion success and reduces early POST severity. The identification of protective factors against POST highlights the importance of developing personalized perioperative strategies to improve patient comfort and airway management outcomes.
