No results posted yet for this study

Summary

After intubation, the endotracheal tube was finally fixed after palpating endotracheal cuff at three sites (just below the cricoid cartilage, at suprasternal level and just below suprasternal notch). Fibre optic bronchoscopy will be done to find distance between tip of endotracheal tube and carina. This distance will be measured repeatedly, after pneumoperitoneum, after trendelenburg position and after making the patient supine at the end of surgery. Change in the distance will be noted.
