Evaluation of the Hemodynamic Response and Ease of Intubation Through Blockbuster Lma in Patients With Anticipated Difficult Airway (ada): Comparison With Conventional Techniques of Intubation Using Difficult Airway Gadgets.

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Background: Patients with anticipated difficult airways (ADA) pose significant challenges for anesthesiologists. Objective: To assess hemodynamic stability and ease of intubation using the Blockbuster Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) in patients with ADA.Methods: Prospective, observational study of 100 ADA patients undergoing elective surgery. Hemodynamic parameters (heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation) were recorded pre-, intra-, and post-LMA insertion and intubation. Results: Successful LMA insertion (98%) and intubation (94%) with minimal hemodynamic changes. Median ease of intubation score: 2 (IQR 1-3). Conclusion: The Blockbuster LMA ensures stable hemodynamics and easy intubation in ADA patients, making it an effective airway management device.
