Comparison between Air-Q Self Pressurized Airway Device with Blocker and Proseal Laryngeal Mask Airway in anesthetized paralyzed adult female patients undergoing elective gynecological operations.
Trial report in Anaesthesiology intensive therapy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionThe Air-Q Self Pressurized Airway Device with Blocker (SP Blocker) was compared to the Proseal Laryngeal Mask Airway (PLMA) during positive pressure ventilation regarding the primary outcome (oropharyngeal leak pressure [OLP]), secondary outcomes (peak inspiratory pressure [PIP], inspired tidal volume [ITV], expired tidal volume [ETV], leak volume [LV] and leak fraction [LF]), insertion time, ventilation score, fiber-optic glottis view score, and postoperative laryngopharyngeal parameters (LPM). MATERIAL AND
methodsAdult healthy female patients scheduled for elective gynecological laparotomies under general anesthesia using controlled mechanical ventilation were recruited to a prospective randomized comparative clinical trial. Exclusion criteria were body mass index (BMI) ≥ 35 kg m -2 , El-Ganzouri score ≥ 5, upper airway problems, hiatus hernia or pregnancy. Patients were classified into an SP Blocker group ( n = 75) and a PLMA group ( n = 75). Primary and secondary outcomes were assessed initially and at fixed time points after successful insertion of devices.
resultsInitially after successful device insertion: the SP Blocker group showed statistically significant higher mean OLP (cmH 2 O) (29.46 ± 2.11 vs. 28.06 ± 1.83 respectively; 95% CI: -2.037 to -0.76, P < 0.0001), lower mean PIP (cmH 2 O) (15.49 ± 0.61 vs. 17.78 ± 1.04 respectively; 95% CI: 2.02 to 2.56, P < 0.0001), higher mean ITV (mL) (411 ± 30 vs. 403 ± 15 respectively; 95% CI: -15.65 to -0.347, P = 0.041), higher mean ETV (mL) (389 ± 12 vs. 354 ± 11 respectively; 95% CI: -38.72 to -31.29, P < 0.0001), lower mean LV (mL) (22 ± 18 vs. 49 ± 10 respectively; 95% CI: 22.3 to 31.7, P < 0.0001) and lower mean LF (%) (5 ± 2.04 vs. 12 ± 6.8 respectively; 95% CI: 5.38 to 8.62, P < 0.0001) than the PLMA group. Mean insertion time (seconds) was shorter in the SP Blocker group than the PLMA group (16.39 ± 2.81 vs. 18.63 ± 3.44 respectively; 95% CI: 1.23 to 3.25, P < 0.0001). The SP Blocker group offered a better fiber-optic glottis view score than the PLMA group without differences concerning ventilation score and LPM.
conclusionsSP Blocker provided as safe anesthesia during controlled mechanical ventilation as PLMA.
