Crossover comparison of the igel with the cuffed tracheal tube during anaesthesia for pressure-controlled ventilation
TLDR
Comparison of the i-gel with the cuffed tracheal tube during pressure-controlled ventilation with a novel device that differs from other devices.
A clinical evaluation of the i‐gelTM supraglottic airway device in children
TLDR
The i‐gelTM is one of the latest commercially available, second‐generation supraglottic airway devices (SADs) and previous studies have shown that it is a reliable, efficient, and safe device for airway management.
Comparison of the laryngeal mask airway supreme and the i-gel in paralysed elderly patients: A randomised controlled trial
TLDR
The i-gel demonstrated better airway sealing than the LMA-S at insertion and during maintenance of anaesthesia, however, the laryngeal mask airway supreme was used successfully and safely in elderly patients.
Comparison of clinical performance of laryngeal mask airway supremeTM and I-gelTM in patients undergoing elective non-laparoscopic surgeries
TLDR
Both I-gel and LMA SupremeTM are disposable, latex-free devices which do not need any digital or introducer tool for insertion and have good airway sealing pressures, ease of insertion and low airway morbidity, so they can be a good choice in patients undergoing elective surgeries.
Clinical benefits of deep sedation with a supraglottic airway while monitoring the bispectral index during catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation
Comparison of Endotracheal Intubation Through I-gel and Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway
TLDR
Supraglottic airway devices (SADs) are very useful airway adjunct in managing anticipated and unanticipated difficult airway and can be used as a ventilating aid and as a conduit for tracheal intubation.
The use of the i-gel in anaesthesia – Facts and fiction in 2013
The supraglottic airway I-gel in comparison with ProSeal laryngeal mask airway and classic laryngeal mask airway in anaesthetized patients
TLDR
I-gel might be an effective alternative as a supraglottic airway device in anaesthetized, paralysed patients and is not associated with adverse events.
Airway management in a pediatric patient with post-burn neck contracture using i-gel Yanik sonrasi boyun kontraktürlü çocuk hastada i-gel kullanarak hava yolu yönetimi
TLDR
A 12-year-old male patient with limited ability to extend the neck and restricted oral opening because of post-burn contracture was ventilated successfully achieved using the supraglottic I-gel method.
Crossover Comparison of the Laryngeal Mask Supreme™ and the i-gel™ in Simulated Difficult Airway Scenario in Anesthetized Patients
TLDR
Both airway devices had similar insertion success and clinical performance in the simulated difficult airway situation and it is shown that both devices are feasible for emergency airway management in patients with reduced neck movement and limited mouth opening.

Case series: Protection from aspiration and failure of protection from aspiration with the i-gel airway.
TLDR
The i-gel has features designed to separate the airway and gastro-intestinal tracts and as such should offer some protection against aspiration, but the efficacy of these features has not been confirmed, and further study is required to determine the safety profile of the device.
Initial anatomic investigations of the I‐gel airway: a novel supraglottic airway without inflatable cuff *
TLDR
It is found that the I‐gel effectively conformed to the perilaryngeal anatomy despite the lack of an inflatable cuff and it consistently achieved proper positioning for supraglottic ventilation.
The i‐gel™ airway for ventilation and rescue intubation
TLDR
It is vital to record how many UK patients fail to undergo BSD testing due to persisting sedation by adding this data to the Potential Donor Audit, and reach consensus on the use of ancillary investigations in the diagnosis of death.
