An observational study in Patients Undergoing ENT Surgery With Cuffed ETT, sponsored by Nationwide Children's Hospital. Completed at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged Up to 17 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-12-13.
Sponsored by Nationwide Children's Hospital · Observational
This study is designed to investigate the relationship between patients' position and endotracheal tube intracuff pressure in the pediatric population.
There are currently no data in the literature as to the effect of changes in head position on CP. As the cuff is located in the patients' trachea, the shape of the patents' trachea may be change depending on the position of the patient's head and therefore, the CP may also change. If the intracuff pressure will increase as the patient's head is moved into a flexed or extended position, these patients may be at risk for tracheal damage. The investigators will prospectively evaluate the relationship between the patient's head position and CP in patients undergoing otolaryngological surgery.
