Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Changes in endotracheal tube cuff pressure from baseline following placement in steep trendelenburg positionTimepoint: Post intubation; Baseline post pneumoperitoneum; Immediately after steep trendelenburg positioning; 15minutes after trendelenburg positioning; 30minutes after trendelenburg positioning; hourly thereafter until repositioning to supine

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Change in endotracheal tube cuff pressure following creation of pneumoperitoneumTimepoint: After creation of pneumoperitoneum;Association between intraoperative changes in endotracheal tube cuff pressure and post operative sore throatTimepoint: At time of discharge from PACU; 4 hours, 12 hours and 24 hours postoperatively;Correlation between endotracheal tube cuff pressure changes and peak airway pressureTimepoint: Post intubation; Post pneumoperitoneum; Immediately after steep trendelenburg positioning; 15minutes after trendelenburg positioning; 30minutes after trendelenburg positioning; hourly thereafter until repositioning to supine
