Positive Pressure Ventilation Through a Laryngeal Mask Airway in Pediatrics

Sisli Hamidiye Etfal Training and Research Hospital150 enrolled

Overview

The investigators aimed to investigate effects of intubation and laryngeal mask airway usage in pediatrics during laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair.

Considering blood gas analysis, end tidal carbon dioxide measurements and airway changes, the investigators aimed to investigate effects of intubation and laryngeal mask airway usage in pediatrics during laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair in this study.
