Laryngoscope Force During Suspension for Adenotonsillectomy

NCT06115798 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 100

Last updated 2023-11-03

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Suspension laryngoscopy is a common procedure during adenoteonsillectomy (removal of adenoids and tonsils), that consists of extending the patient's neck to allow better visualization of the tonsils. Previous studies on suspension larygnoscopy have shown that the time to maximum force during this procedure predicts complications such as pain, tounge swelling and opioid requirements. Moreover, monitoring these force during laparoscopy can reduce postoperative complications. However, no study to date has investigated the force metrics during suspension laryngoscopy in the pediatric population. Therefore, in this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the relationship of force metrics during adenotonsillectomy, adenoidectomy or tonsillectomy and postoperative pain.
