Evaluation of Different Positive End-Expiratory Pressures Using Supreme ™ Airway Laryngeal Mask during Minor Surgical Procedures in Children.

Conclusions: Our data suggest that ventilation with a PEEP of 5 mbar might be more lung protective in children using the Supreme™ airway laryngeal mask, although gastric air insufflation increased with higher PEEP. We recommend the use of a laryngeal mask with the option of inserting a gastric tube to evacuate potential gastric air. PMID: 33096743 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
