Study summary

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

Read the detailed description

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.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. 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

  1. 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airway pressures, measuring the difference between the tidal volume delivered from the anesthesia device and the volume withdrawn from the patient, and its correlation with correct placement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
