NCT ID NCT05782517
First seen Jan 19, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 18 times
Summary
This study tested two ways to help women breathe during short gynecologic laparoscopic procedures: the I-gel laryngeal mask (a soft mask placed in the throat) versus standard endotracheal intubation (a tube placed into the windpipe). Researchers measured air leaks, ease of placement, and side effects in 120 participants. The goal was to see if the I-gel is a safe and simpler alternative for surgeries lasting under two hours.
