Factors Associated With Occluding the Upper Esophagus by Paratracheal Force
Not yet recruiting
- Conditions
- Intubation Complication
- Registration Number
- NCT06210867
- Lead Sponsor
- SMG-SNU Boramae Medical Center
- Brief Summary
We aim to identify anatomical factors that affect upper esophageal occlusion during the application of paratracheal pressure.
- Detailed Description
Measure the sternomental distance, thyromental distance, neck length, neck circumference, Mallampati score, BMI, Neck motion, inter-incisor gap, thyrosternal distance. And analysis these factors are associated with upper esophageal occlusion or not.
