Pilot Feasibility Study of Laryngeal Ultrasound in the Paediatric Population - ECHO LARYNX
Sponsor: University Hospital, Bordeaux
Summary
Nasofibroscopy is the gold standard for laryngeal pathology diagnosis. However, this examination is invasive and can be poorly tolerated in the pediatric population. Laryngeal ultrasound appears to be a better tolerated alternative. However, few data exist in the pediatric population in the literature. The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of laryngeal ultrasound in a larger pediatric population of pathological and non-pathological subjects.

laryngeal ultrasound
laryngeal ultrasound with linear probe will be positioned on the patient's neck. A list of anatomical sites to be visualised will be determined beforehand. Once all the pre-determined structures have been visualised, in an axial and sagittal plane, we will note the position of the ultrasound probe and its orientation. This will enable us to determine the ideal position of the ultrasound probe for obtaining all the elements of interest on a section that will be called the reference section.
