About this study

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.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. correlation between ultrasonography and clinical tests

    Time frame: 24 hours

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

Secondary outcomes

  1. mesuring airway pressures

    Time frame: 24 hours

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pressures, measuring the difference between the tidal volume delivered from the anesthesia device and the volume withdrawn from the patient, and its correlation with correct placement
