Filter by:The purpose of this study is to identify patient and provider-chosen factors that put patients at risk for the development of hypoxemia (oxygen saturation < 90% for 5 seconds) during endoscopy and to use this knowledge to develop a treatment protocol for specific causes of hypoxemia in adult esophagogastroduodenoscopy outpatients.
In the literature, we found no randomized clinical trials addressing the using of IV lidocaine as prophylaxis for postoperative laryngospasm among adults. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of IV lidocaine on the incidence of postoperative laryngospasm of adults patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of laryngeal mask classic as method for securing the airway in the population of 2 years to 14 years is associated with risk of laryngospasm as compared with the use of endotracheal tube.
To describe respiratory and laryngeal responses to laryngeal stimulation during propofol anesthesia in children. To determine whether the co-administration of lidocaine blunts these reflex responses. The outcome of primary interest is the reflex laryngospasm. Hypotheses: I: The severity of laryngospasm evoked by laryngeal stimulation is reduced 2 min. after iv. administration on 2mg/kg lidocaine in pediatric patients anesthetized with propofol (3mcg/ml). II:The incidence of laryngospasm elicited by controlled stimulation 10min. after iv. administration of lidocaine is equivalent to the response before the administration of lidocaine.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether exchange of the double lumen tube before emergence with a laryngeal mask airway (Proseal) or a tracheal tube will reduce cough at emergence.
To describe laryngeal and respiratory reflex responses after controlled laryngeal stimulation in pediatric patients anesthetized with sevoflurane and to compare the evoked responses at two levels of anesthesia. To determine whether laryngeal and respiratory reflex responses after controlled laryngeal stimulation are completely suppressed in subjects when anesthetized with a MACEI95 (EI = endotracheal intubation) sevoflurane Hypothesis: The incidence of apnea with laryngospasm evoked by laryngeal stimulation will be reduced by 20% (from 25% to 5%) when the end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane is increased from 2.5% (MAC50) to 4.7% (MACEI95)
