Table 3.
Two-Diameter Method was used to measure CSA-GA by ultrasound. Stomach volume was estimated and calculated by ESV = 27.0 + 14.6 × CSA-1.28 × age (years). Compared with before jet ventilation, CSA-GA and ESV after jet ventilation had not been increased in the WNJ SJOV group (p > 0.05)
| Monitored variables | Before WNJ SJOV (N = 34) | After WNJ SJOV (N = 34) | P-Value (before VS after) |
|---|---|---|---|
| CSA-GA (cm2) | 3.32 ± 0.59 | 3.34 ± 0.56 | 0.234 |
| ESV (ml) | 18.78 ± 6.68 | 18.89 ± 6.59 | 0.777 |
