Ventilation Safety in Beach Chair Shoulder Surgery: SafeLM Versus I-gel
Sponsor: Ankara City Hospital Bilkent
Summary
This study aims to compare the performance of SafeLM™ video laryngeal mask airway and i-gel® supraglottic airway device in patients undergoing shoulder surgery in the beach chair position under general anesthesia. The primary objective is to evaluate oropharyngeal leak pressure (OLP) within the first 10 minutes after transition to the beach chair position. Secondary objectives include assessment of ventilation safety, need for airway interventions, and postoperative airway-related complications. This prospective randomized study will provide data on the effectiveness and safety of a video-guided supraglottic airway device compared to a conventional device in a clinically challenging position.

Interventions
SafeLM™ video laryngeal mask airway
A video-guided supraglottic airway device used for airway management during general anesthesia in patients undergoing shoulder surgery in the beach chair position. It allows real-time visualization of glottic structures during placement.
i-gel® supraglottic airway device
A second-generation supraglottic airway device used for airway management during general anesthesia in patients undergoing shoulder surgery in the beach chair position.
