Table 4
P-LMA™ insertion duration, ease of the insertion score, and traumatic insertion.
| Group | U (n = 46) | R (n = 46) | X (n = 46) | value |
| P-LMA™ insertion duration (seconds) | 25.9 (23.1–32.6) | 26.3 (21.5–31.3) | 28.5 (22.4–35.6) | 0.402 |
| Ease of the insertion score | 1 | 20 (43.5) | 23 (50.0) | 17 (37.0) | 0.259 | 2 | 20 (43.5) | 21 (45.7) | 20 (43.5) | 3 | 6 (13.0) | 2 (4.3) | 9 (19.6) | 4 | 0 (0) | 0 (0) | 0 (0) |
| Traumatic LMA insertion | 11 (23.9) | 9 (19.6) | 13 (28.3) | 0.620 |
