Recruitment status

COMPLETED

Study phase

NA

Target enrollment

Participant Flow

Patients were recruited at the Teaching Hospital of the Federal University of Pernambuco

Ninety-eight patients were screened for the purpose of determining eligibility; seventy-two were enrolled, twenty-six were not due to not meeting the inclusion criteria \[ASA \>2,(01); Not Preschool-aged (21)\], meeting the exclusion criteria \[current upper respiratory tract infection(03)\] or not signing the written informed consent (01)
