Read MoreAuthors: Kim HC et al., Anaesthesia 2014 Apr 28; A 90° rotation increases first-pass success and decreases insertion time. The i-gel is a supraglottic device with a soft, noninflatable cuff. Although insertion is usually successful, it sometimes fails because of tongue folding. Previous studies have shown that a rotational technique during insertion improves first-pass success […]
