Brief summary
The use of ultrasonography in the operating room is increasing day by day. Ultrasonography is a method used to evaluate diaphragm thickness. There are publications that demonstrate the usefulness of evaluating diaphragm thickness, diaphragm function, and contribution to respiratory workload. Measurement of the diaphragm thickness is a parameter that can be used for decision making before mechanical ventilation and extubation. Adenotonsillectomy operations are frequently performed in the operating room between the pediatric age group. In these cases, which are operated and extubated at the end of the operation, the ratio of the diaphragm muscle thickness to the final inspiratory and final expirium before extubation will be examined. We think that the determination of this ratio may be meaningful for the determination of the extubation time. In this study, we plan to evaluate diaphragm thickness rates with USG in pediatric patients who underwent adenotonsillectomy operation and evaluate whether they provide extubation criteria in these patients.
