Assessment of haemodynamic response to the insertion of laryngeal mask airway

Abstract

Background: The major post operative complications associated with Endotracheal intubation such as sorethroat and Laryngitis, pharyngitis, laryngotracheal Most frequent cause of difficulty or danger in the administration of Anaesthesia is obstruction of airway. trauma and vocal cord dysfunction can be avoided with the judicial use of Laryngeal mask airway. So the purpose of the study was to assess haemo dynamic response to the insertion of laryngeal mask airway. Material and Methods: Total 50 patients of ASAGrade I and Grade II undergoing elective surgical procedures were studied. A thorough pre-operative examination and detailed history was completed according to the proforma. Proper placement of Laryngeal mask airway was confirmed by equal chest inflation. To observe the haemodynamic changes, heart rate, blood pressure, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, Mean arterial pressure (MAP), Rate pressure product (RPP) and Cardiac dysarthymia during insertion of the Laryngeal Mask Airway were recorded. Statistical analysis was done using appropriate statistical tests. Observation and Results: The actual rise of basal pulse was 9.54 per minute, in systolic blood pressure was 22.32 mm of Hg, in the diastolic blood pressure was 9.8 mm of Hg. The mean value of the Mean arterial pressure was 101.82 mm of Hg. The mean basal value of RPP was 8174.12. Conclusion: Thus present study showed that laryngeal mask airway is a well-designed and effective device with a unique role in airway management. Key Word: laryngeal mask airway. *Address for Correspondence: Dr. Elizabeth C Sada, Polaris Flat No 203. Kubera Park. Lullanagar Pune-40, Maharashtra, INDIA.
