The prediction of difficult intubation in obese patients using mirror indirect laryngoscopy: A prospective pilot study

Journal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology, 2013
Background: The incidence of difficult laryngoscopy and intubation in obese patients is higher than in the general population. Classical predictors of difficult laryngoscopy and intubation have been shown to be unreliable.

Difficult laryngoscopy and intubation in the Indian population: An assessment of anatomical and clinical risk factors

Indian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2013
Background and Aim: Differences in patient characteristics due to race or ethnicity may influence the incidence of difficult airway. Our purpose was to determine the incidence of difficult laryngoscopy and intubation, as well as the anatomical features ...

Ultrasonographic Prediction of Difficult Laryngoscopy in Obese Patients

Indian Journal of Medical Specialities, 2020
Introduction: Anticipation of difficulties in airway management is of prime importance in avoiding potential catastrophies. Obese patients form part of a population that is believed to have difficult airway.

Evaluation of ultrasound measured tongue thickness, tongue thickness–thyromental distance ratio, and skin-to-epiglottis distance in predicting unanticipated difficult laryngoscopy [PDF]

Journal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology
Background and Aims: The contemporary literature review suggests upper airway ultrasound can help us to diagnose an unanticipated difficult airway before laryngoscopy.

Predicting difficult laryngoscopy in morbidly obese Thai patients by ultrasound measurement of distance from skin to epiglottis: a prospective observational study [PDF]

BMC Anesthesiology, 2022
Background In morbidly obese patients, airway management is challenging since the incidence of difficult intubation is three times than those with a BMI within the healthy range.

Improving bedside airway tests accuracy for predicting difficult laryngoscopy using ultrasound-measured skin-to-epiglottis distance [PDF]

Journal of Anesthesia, Analgesia and Critical Care
Background This study aimed to assess the accuracy of a composite score combining ultrasound-measured skin-to-epiglottis distance (DSE), Upper Lip Bite Test (ULBT), and Modified Mallampati Test (MMT) in predicting difficult airway.

Modified laryngoscore for difficult laryngoscopy

, 2023
The research primarily focuses on establishing the Modified Laryngoscore as an innovative predictor for difficult laryngeal exposure. This score incorporates various patient parameters like BMI, gender, neck circumference, Mallampati score, smoking status, neck mobility, mouth opening, dental status, and thyromental distance.
