[PECULIARITIES OF ANESTHESIA DURING COCHLEAR IMPLANTATION IN PEDIATRICS.]
The Aim:
analysis of the use of laryngeal mask in anesthesia for cochlear implantation.
Materials And Methods:
10 patients aged from 1 year to 5 years were operated on according to the classical method KI with the use of laryngeal masks. As anesthesia was performed a balanced multimodal anesthesia by Sevoflurane and Fentanyl.
Results:
The use of laryngeal masks in all 10 cases have gave the possible to avoid the use of muscle relaxants and to clear the threshold of detection of acoustic reflexes ofstapes musclestendon, and to reduce time of surgical intervention. A short time surgery provided rapid awakening of the patient, absence of nausea and vomiting in the early postoperative period.
Conclusion:
use of laryngeal mask airway is reduces the time of surgery, minimize the patient's trauma, reduce input anesthetic drugs and get good results intraoperative audiological testing.
