The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of head position on prevent the emergence cough followed by endotracheal extubation.
During endotrachl intubaion, the sniffing postion is most commonly recommended. However, the head position to reduce the emergence cough followed by endotracheal extubation was not confirmed yet. Considering the endotracheal tube vector, head elevation with pillow is thought to be acceptable more.
92 studies on the registry are indexed under Gallbladder Diseases; 19 are open to participants now.

Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.
