Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| evaluate the occurrence of airway edema after elective neurosurgical procedures in various surgical positionsTimepoint: time points after surgery (in hours) - 0,12,24,48. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| compare the frequency of laryngeal edema at 24 hours after endotracheal intubation among patients operated in different surgical positionsTimepoint: 24 hours after endotracheal intubation;evaluate the risk factors associated with postoperative laryngeal edema in patients undergoing neurosurgical procedures in various surgical positions. Timepoint: after extubation;To compare the efficacy of cuff leak test (CLT) and laryngeal ultrasound on prediction of laryngeal edema after tracheal extubation.Timepoint: after extubation | — |
