简要总结
All the patients satisfying inclusion criteria will be evaluated at least one day prior to surgery
All of the patients will be kept nil per oral for solids for 8hrs and clear fluids upto 2 hrs prior to surgery. No sedative premedication will be administered in any of the patient.
Demographic and preoperative data such as age , sex , weight , BMI , Diagnosis of the patient, neurological status will be recorded along with ASA grade
In the preoperative ward the USG guided airway parameters will be assessed utilizing curvilinear and linear probe. Patients will be positioned in a supine position with head in neutral position, the mouth closed and the tongue on the floor of the mouth without any movement. Different parameters will be noted. Neck extension will not be done in any patient for USG guided airway assessment.
After shifting the patient to operation theatre , patient will be placed in supine position and ASA standard monitors (noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) , Electrocardiography (ECG) , Pulse oximeter (Spo2) will be attached.
Peripheral IV cannulation will be done and infusion of Ringer Lactate will be started.
Anaesthesia in all the cases will be induced using Injection(Inj) Fentanyl 2mcg/kg, Inj Propofol 2 mg/kg and Vecuronium 0.1 mg/kg.Check ventilation will be done.Manual inline stabilization will be applied in all the cases.
Laryngocopy will be conducted by an experienced anesthesiologist with >3years of experience maintaining manual inline stabilization utilizing standard laryngoscope and Cormack Lehane grading will be recorded. Alternately Video laryngoscope maybe used and POGO score recorded.
Maintenance of anaesthesia will be done using 50 % oxygen in air , Sevoflurane (0.8 - 1.0 MAC) with intermittent boluses of inj.Vecuronium 0.02 mg/kg.
Central venous catheter of 7 FG will be placed in right internal jugular vein or subclavian vein and right radial artery will be cannulated for invasive blood pressure monitoring as per need of surgery.
