Methadone patient-controlled analgesia for postoperative pain: a randomized, controlled, double-blind study.

abstract：PURPOSE:In emergency situations, rescuers occasionally must secure the airway while the patient is in a position other than the ideal supine position. We hypothesized that the laryngeal mask airway Supreme(®) (Supreme) may be useful for emergent airway management in several positions and compared the utility of the Sup...
