Objectif : Comparer l'incidence de complications de la canulation chez des enfants de moins d'un an dont l'accès aux voies aériennes a été maintenu pendant l'anesthésie, soit avec un masque laryngé (ML), soit avec un masque et une canule orale (M-CO).

Méthode : Nous avons réparti 49 enfants - ASA I et II - en groupes ML ou M-CO. Tous les enfants devaient subir une intervention mineure, urologique ou orthopédique. L'anesthésie a été induite et maintenue avec de l'halothane dans un mélange à 50 % de protoxyde d'azote et d'oxygène. La canule a été retirée chez tous les enfants à leur réveil. On a noté l'occurrence de complications de la canulation (arrêt de la respiration, toux, laryngospasme, sécrétions, obstruction et saturation en oxygène < 95%) lors de l'induction de l'anesthésie, pendant l'opération et pendant la récupération de l'anesthésie.

Résultats : Les complications peropératoires de la canulation sont survenues chez 15 des 27 enfants du groupe ML et chez 5 des 22 enfants du groupe M-CO (P : 0,02).

Conclusion : Chez les enfants, l'usage du ML, comparé à celui d'un masque et d'une canule orale, est associé à une incidence accrue de complications de la canulation.
