Summary

This purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness, risk factors, and complications associated with use of supraglottic airway devices for primary airway maintenance during routine anesthesia in children.

Detailed description

This study aims to understand the efficacy of supraglottic airway (SGA) use in children in a tertiary care Children's Hospital. Observational data regarding the type of SGA, experience level of practitioner, placement technique, number of placement attempts or placement failure, device failure, and cause of any related peri-operative complications will be prospectively collected. The data collected in this study will allow the investigators to assess the overall safety and efficacy of SGA use in various medical and surgical procedures performed under general anesthesia in children.
