Changes of breathing tube position in Laparoscopic procedures

Not yet recruiting

• Conditions: Medical and Surgical,

• Registration Number: CTRI/2023/01/048832
• Lead Sponsor: Sree Balaji Medical College & Hospital

Brief Summary

Intrabdominal pressure ( pneumoperitoneum) created during laproscopic procedures can cause cephalad movement of the diaphragm and subsequently can cause migration of endotracheal tube tip towards carina thereby increasing the risk of endobronchial migration. similarly, the patient position can also cause endotracheal tube migration within the tracheobronchial tree. Previous studies have assessed in other positions. Hence we wish to assess these changes in Reverse Trendelenburg.
