Conditions

Respiration and Comfort During Anesthesia Recovery

Interventions

Supine position group:Maintain the supine position after removing the laryngeal mask/tracheal tube, and after 2 hours, change to a comfortable free position.
Gradual semi-recumbent position group:Gradually move to a semi-recumbent position. Raise the head of the bed by 15° five minutes after removing the laryngeal mask/tracheal tube, by 30° one hour after
