Abstract :Objective: We aimed to compare the superiority of I-Gel and Auragain, the second-generation supraglottic airway devices insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SGAD); with different cuff structures, in terms of speed and ease of placement, oropharyngeal leak pressure insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(OLP);, resistance of gastric contents, and post-operative oropharyngeal pain. Materials and Methods: A total of 70 patients aged 18-65 years, with ASA scores I-II, who used I-Gel or Auragain to provide airways under general anesthesia were included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups as I-Gel and Auragain according to the type of SGAD used. Results: OLP, placement duration and Visual Analogue Score insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(VAS); were found to be statistically significantly higher in the Auragain group insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p 0.05);. Conclusion: The use of I-Gel provides faster airway and less postoperative throat ache. The use of Auragain provides more efficient ventilation and higher OLP values. In addition, throat ache increases with the number of attempts and the duration of placement in both groups.
