Official Title: Ultrasonographic Comparison of Gastric Volume After Three Modes of Positive Facemask. A Prospective Randomized Study.

Brief Summary: This study is designed to evaluate the occurrence of gastric insufflation and the critical volume of the stomach after three different modes of positive pressure ventilation during induction (Manual-controlled, volume-controlled and pressure-controlled ventilation)

Detailed Summary: Aspiration of gastric contents can be a serious perioperative complication, which can be related to facemask positive pressure ventilation with unprotected airway. Even with low peak airway pressure (<15 cm H2O) gastric insufflation may occur. Since gastric content and volume assessment is a new point-of-care ultrasound recommended application, the cross-sectional antra area will be measured using ultrasonography before, continuously during facemask ventilation and after intubation.
