Laryngeal mask airway has been widely adopted in the clinical practice.\n\nOn the other hand, cricoid pressure has been used to reduce the risk of pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents during induction of general anesthesia. However, cricoid pressure might impede placement of the laryngeal mask airway, thereby preventing effective ventilation.\n\nRecently, left paratracheal pressure was introduced as an alternative to cricoid pressure and reported to be more effective than cricoid pressure in the prevention of gastric air insufflation during positive-pressure ventilation by facemask. Since this method compresses low left paratracheal level, it may affect the successful insertion of laryngeal mask airway.\n\nIn this study, the investigators aimed to evaluate the effect of paratracheal esophagus pressure on the insertion of laryngeal mask airway compare to conventional cricoid pressure.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '70 Years', 'minimumAge': '19 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients who are undergoing surgery under general anesthesia where supraglottic airway management will be appropriate\n* American Society of Anesthesiologists Classification 1-2\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Body mass index \\> 35 kg/m2\n* High risk of regurgitation (hiatus hernia, gastro-esophageal reflux disease, non-fasting status)\n* Criteria for difficult airway (limitation of mouth opening/neck extension, Mallampati class IV),'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04106635', 'briefTitle': 'Effect of Paratracheal Esophagus Pressure on the Insertion of Laryngeal Mask Airway', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Ajou University School of Medicine'}, 'officialTitle': 'Effect of Pressure to Left Paratracheal Esophagus During the Insertion of Laryngeal Mask Airway', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'MED-INT-19-361'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'PP group', 'description': 'During the induction of anesthesia, left paratracheal pressure is applied by 30N force with thumb after confirmation of the location of the esophagus using ultrasound.', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Paratracheal pressure']}, {'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'CP group', 'description': 'During the induction of anesthesia, cricoid pressure is applied by 30N force with three finger.', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Cricoid pressure']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Paratracheal pressure', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'To apply paratracheal pressure, the thumb was placed over the left side of the trachea cephalad to the clavicle and medial to the sternocleidomastoid muscle.', 'armGroupLabels': ['PP group']}, {'name': 'Cricoid pressure', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'To apply cricoid pressure, the cricoid cartilage is compressed by 30N force with a single-handed three finger maneuvre towards the vertebral bodies.', 'armGroupLabels': ['CP group']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '16499', 'city': 'Suwon', 'state': 'Gyeonggi-do', 'country': 'South Korea', 'facility': 'Ajou university hospital', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 37.29111, 'lon': 127.00889}}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Ajou University School of Medicine', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Professor', 'investigatorFullName': 'Jong Yeop Kim', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Ajou University School of Medicine'}}}}
