Summary

This study is designed to evaluate the occurrence of gastric insufflation and the critical volume of the stomach after three different modes of positive pressure ventilation during induction (Manual-controlled, volume-controlled and pressure-controlled ventilation)

Detailed description

Aspiration of gastric contents can be a serious perioperative complication, which can be related to facemask positive pressure ventilation with unprotected airway. Even with low peak airway pressure (\<15 cm H2O) gastric insufflation may occur. Since gastric content and volume assessment is a new point-of-care ultrasound recommended application, the cross-sectional antra area will be measured using ultrasonography before, continuously during facemask ventilation and after intubation.

Conditions

• Positive-Pressure Respiration
• Respiratory Aspiration of Gastric Content

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Diagnostic ultrasonography of gastric volume	Ultrasonic measurement of gastric insufflation during positive pressure ventilation (secondary endpoint) and final gastric volume after positive pressure ventilation (primary endpoint)
