Comparison of Simulated Standard Versus Modified Jaw Thrust I-gel Insertion Technique in Novice Anesthesiologists

"Standard I-gel insertion technique (grasping I-gel from integral bite block site and cuff facing towards chin and pressing down the manikin chin. I-gel introduced in patient's mouth in a direction towards hard palate. Then I-gel slided downwards and backwards along hard palate with a continuous but gentle push until a definitive resistance is felt)~Modified jaw thrust technique (grasping I-gel from integral bite block site and cuff facing towards chin and pressing down manikin chin. I-gel introduced in patient's mouth in a direction towards hard palate with gently advancing into oropharynx. Then after, I-gel left in oral cavity and both hands used to thrust jaw by lifting angle of mandible with little fingers and other fingers to stabilise jaw. And, at this point, both hand's thumbs used to apply balance force from I-gel stem head towards final placement position by looking at integral bite block mark at incisor teeth level)"
