Abstract

In the Surgical Center there is a need for the acquisition of two equipments that will substantially aid in conducting research and complementary studies in clinical research protocols. The first is the fibroscope which, with its use, correlates the predictive factors of the difficult airway due to the importance of knowing the peculiarities inherent to the obese ones by the anesthesiologist. The second equipment is Binocular stereoscopic microscope being a resource that favors the inspection of the effective removal of the organic matter, through the use of loupes and complementary lighting systems.
