We hypothesized that the real-time ultrasound left paratracheal esophagus monitoring could more effectively reduce air entry into the stomach than real-time ultrasound monitoring of the gastric antrum (GA).Methods: Patients were divided into two groups: study (S; n=30) and control (C; n=30) groups. During the induction of general anesthesia, mask ventilation adopts a pressure control mode. The initial ventilation pressure of both groups was 15 cmH2O. Before anesthesia induction, an ultrasonic probe was used to monitor the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the GA and the presence of gas in the stomach. During and after anesthesia induction, group S used a high-frequency ultrasound probe to observe the entry of air from the left paratracheal esophagus into the GA. The ventilation pressure was gradually reduced over time until no esophageal air was found. In group C, the ventilatory pressure was set maintained at 15 cmH2O and the CSA of the GA and air intake were monitored using an ultrasonic probe.Results: Before and after PPV, the CSA of the GA in group S decreased (P< 0.001), whereas the CSA in group C increased (P=0.002). The GA CSA in group C after PPV was larger than in group S after PPV (P=0.002). The proportion of patients who experienced intragastric air intake in group S (23.3%) was significantly lower than that in group C (66.7) (P=0.001).Conclusion: Compared with ultrasound monitoring of the GA, real-time ultrasound detection of LPEOAE into the GA during anesthesia induction was more effective, more sensitive, significantly reduced the prevalence of intragastric air intake, and provided sufficient tidal volume and oxygen for patients.Keywords: left paratracheal esophagus, anesthesia, ultrasonography, gastric antrumLi ZYuan XDeng WDove Medical Pressarticleleft paratracheal esophagusanesthesiaultrasonographygastric antrumTherapeutics.
