No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal range of insertion depths for a nasopharyngeal probe in anesthetized pediatric patients as a function of age.

Conditions

  • Pediatric Temperature

Interventions

OTHER

Nasopharyngeal temperature probe

Nasopharyngeal temperatures will initially be recorded 30 minutes after induction of anesthesia. Nasopharyngeal probes will then be withdrawn at the designated increment for each age group and will be equilibrated for 3 minutes before the temperature is recorded. Thereafter, the nasopharyngeal withdrawal sequence will be repeated.
