ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how much anesthesia is needed when using two different devices for breathing support during surgery: the endotracheal tube (ETT) and the ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA). Both devices help keep patients breathing safely while they are under general anesthesia, but the researchers want to find out if the PLMA requires less anesthesia than the ETT while still providing effective ventilation. They will measure the amount of a specific anesthetic drug called propofol that is used during the surgery to see if there is a difference between the two methods.

To participate in this study, individuals must be between the ages of 18 and 75 and scheduled for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy, which is a surgery to remove the gallbladder. However, there are some important criteria that could exclude participation, such as having certain heart or breathing issues, being significantly overweight, or having an allergy to propofol. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the ETT or PLMA during their surgery, and the study aims to gather valuable information that could improve anesthesia practices in the future.
