Kocaeli University55 enrolled

Overview

In this study,the investigators evaluated the placement of the supraglottic airway device with ultrasonographic imaging.

After informing the patients about the study and possible risks, written consent was obtained from all patients. After routine anesthesia technique was applied to the patients, supraglottic airway device was inserted. The placement of the airway device was evaluated with ultrasonography. Airway pressures reflected on the anesthesia device were recorded. The correlation between airway pressures and ultrasonographic images was evaluated.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

correlation between ultrasonography and clinical tests

Our primary aim was investigation of correlation between ultrasonography and clinical tests for placement of supraglottic airway device in pediatric patients.

Time frame: 24 hours

Secondary Outcomes

mesuring airway pressures

Our secondary aim was measuring airway pressures, measuring the difference between the tidal volume delivered from the anesthesia device and the volume withdrawn from the patient, and its correlation with correct placement

Time frame: 24 hours
