Randomized Controlled Trial
Optimal inspiratory pressure for face mask ventilation in paralyzed and unparalyzed children to prevent gastric insufflation: a prospective, randomized, non-blinded study.
Gastric insufflation is common during face mask ventilation and results in unfavourable respiratory events in children. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of a muscle relaxant on gastric insufflation and determine the optimal inspiratory pressure during face mask ventilation in children. ⋯ A neuromuscular blocking agent has minimal effect on the inspiratory pressure that causes gastric insufflation during face mask ventilation in children.
