Anaesthesia is an everchanging branch with new advancements and researches taking place at a breakneck pace. Securing the airway and maintaning its patency remains the priority for any anaesthesiologist. Supraglottic airway devices remain a preferable device in many surgical procedures. Over the years, supraglottic airway devices have undergone various modifications for the better patient outcome. This book aims to compare the safety profile of LMA Proseal and LMA Supreme in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Endotracheal intubation is an integral part of the anesthesiologist's contribution to patient care. It becomes an essential component of general anesthesia. The placement of an endotracheal tube in the trachea is an extremely noxious stimulus. In response to this stimulation, there is a significant rise in catecholamine levels. This results in a rise in heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure,intraocular,intracranial pressure and potential for cardiac arrhythmia. The present study was designed to compare the effect of labetalol and esmolol on sympathomimetic response to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation in normotensive patients undergoing surgeries under general anesthesia.
