Abstract

Background: The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) iswidely used for airway management during shortsurgical procedures. Propofol is the preferredinduction agent for LMA insertion; however, its usealone may require higher doses, leading to hypotension and respiratory depression. Adjuncts such as ketamine, fentanyl, and dexmedetomidinehave been used to improve insertion conditions
