Sponsor's own description

General anaesthesia demands securing patient's airway either with endotracheal tube or laryngeal mask (LMA); however, both carry the disadvantage of postoperative soar throat. Nasopharyngeal airway (NPA) can be an alternative without the risk of postoperative soar throat.6 The primary end point of our study is to assess the incidence of soar throat with the use of NPA compared to LMA in patients receiving general anaesthesia during blepharoplasty.
