It was found that LMA-S reached greater average sealing pressure than CLMA in this study, insertion times and adverse effect incidence being similar for both devices when trainee medical personnel inserted them into adult patients undergoing ophthalmology surgery. 1.

En este estudio se encontró que la LMA-supreme alcanza mayores presiones promedio de sello que la LMAc, con tiempos de inserción e incidencia de efectos adversos similares entre ambos dispositivos, cuando fueron insertados por personal médico en formación en pacientes adultos sometidos a cirugía oftalmológica.
