Airway Complication of Anaesthesia, Airway Management
Conditions
Brief summary
In this study, investigators will research the types and incidence rates of airway complications seen in the perioperative period during airway management. In addition, unlike the literature, the relationship between the airway equipment used and perioperative airway complications will be investigated.
Detailed description
Complications related to airway management rarely occur in the operating room; however, these complications can lead to life-threatening situations. There are many studies on the types and incidence rates of airway management complications in the perioperative period. However, although the types and incidence rates of airway complications have been investigated in these studies, the effect of airway equipment used in airway management on complications has not been investigated. There are many equipment used in airway management. Laryngoscopes, face masks, oral airway devices and many assistant airway management devices are used as basic equipment. Different airway equipment may be used in each center in each case. There is no standard between centers in this regard. In this study, investigators will primarily research the types and incidence rates of airway complications seen in the perioperative period during airway management similar to the existing literature. In addition, unlike the literature, the relationship between the airway equipment used and perioperative airway complications will be investigated.
Interventions
PROCEDURESuccessful airway management
* Types of equipment: Traditional oral airways, new airways, etc. * Professional experience of the airway management practitioner (in years). * If advanced, type of airway complication (bleeding, dental damage, mucosal damage, etc.), number of attempts will be recorded separately for each patient.
