Effect of Different Positions During Extubation on Incidence of Hypoxemia in the Peri Extubation Period
Sponsor: Assiut University
Summary
Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) is common, often due to enlarged tonsils/adenoids. Tonsillectomy/adenoidectomy frequently performed under GA with tracheal intubation due to the age of children. Risk of hypoxemia and respiratory complications during the peri-extubation period is high.
