Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The aim of the study is to compare cuff leak test (CLT) versus ultrasound guided laryngeal airway column width (ACW) difference to detect prevalence of laryngeal oedema in patients undergoing surgery in prone position for duration of more than 3 hoursTimepoint: After surgery before extubation—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Number of patients requiring reintubation after procedure due to laryngeal oedema after prone position surgery. 2. Correlation of laryngeal oedema with duration of surgery. 3. Correlation of laryngeal edema for delayed extubationTimepoint: After surgery—
