Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate the effect of prophylactic dexamethasone on the incidence of Post Extubation Airway Events in robotic pelvic surgery, as predicted by sonographically-measured airway column width ratio.Timepoint: post intubation pre extubation 1 hour post operative | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1)To determine the risk factors for development of Post extubation airway event in robotic pelvic surgery. 2)To correlate the development of facial / conjunctival oedema with airway column width ratio 3)To correlate the development of facial / conjunctival oedema with the development of Post extubation airway event Timepoint: post intubation pre extubation 1 hour post operative | — |
