Ultrasonography indicators for predicting difficult intubation: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

BMC Emergency Medicine, 2021
Background Ultrasonography (US) is recently used frequently as a tool for airway assessment prior to intubation (endotracheal tube (ETT) placement), and several indicators have been proposed in studies with different reported performances in this regard.

Clinical predictors for perioperative anticipated and unanticipated difficult intubation: a matched case-control study [PDF]

Scientific Reports
We aimed to determine the clinical predictors of perioperative anticipated and unanticipated difficult intubation using a matched case-control study. We recruited patients undergoing surgery with endotracheal intubation from 2015 to 2020.
