Comparison of two methods for inflating breathing tube cuff in patients having laparoscopic gallbladder surgery under general anaesthesia.

A comparative study of endotracheal tube cuff pressure between two techniques, using Pressure-Volume loop (PV-L) and Minimal occlusive volume (MOV) in patients undergoing laparascopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia, a prospective randomised controlled study. - NIL

Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1.ASA Grade I and II, both genders undergoing Laparascopic Cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia. 2.Age between 18 years and 60 years. 3.BMI less than 30kg

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1.Patients not giving consent to the study, 2. Patients with anticipated difficult intubation, 3. Emergency intubations, 4. Known anatomical laryngotracheal abnormalities, 5. Patients with high risk of pulmonary aspiration, pre op sore throat & Upper respiratory infections.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The PV loop technique would be more accurate than MOV technique in acheiving the desired ETTc pressure in patients undergoing laparascopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia.Timepoint: The ETT cuff pressure will be measure post intubation and pre extubation.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.To compare the endotracheal cuff volume with the two techniques 2.To compare the incidence of sore throat, cough & hoarseness of voice.Timepoint: Patients will be assesed at 2 hours, 6 hours & 24 hours post extubation.
