Identification of Difficult Laryngoscopy via Double-Pose Feature Clustering Network in Patients with Cervical Spondylosis

Intelligent Computing
Background: The identification of difficult laryngoscopy is a critical skill for anesthesiologists, particularly in high-risk procedures such as cervical spine surgery, which demands heightened accuracy in preoperative airway assessment.

Assessment of difficult laryngoscopy by electronically measured maxillo-pharyngeal angle on lateral cervical radiograph: A prospective study

Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2010
Background: Difficult airway continued to be a major cause of anesthesia-related morbidity and mortality. Successful airway management depends on direct laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation.

Value of Anthropometric Measurements in Predicting Difficult Laryngoscopy in Children: A Prospective, Observational Study

Journal of Behçet Uz Children's Hospital, 2020
INTRODUCTION: Ensuring airway security carries the utmost importance in anesthesia. Specific predictive tests or findings for difficult airway are not defined for children under 3 years old.

Comparison of the glidescope, CMAC, storz DCI with the Macintosh laryngoscope during simulated difficult laryngoscopy: a manikin study [PDF]

BMC Anesthesiology, 2012
Background Videolaryngoscopy presents a new approach for the management of the difficult and rescue airway. There is little available evidence to compare the performance features of these devices in true difficult laryngoscopy.

Assessment of Airway Parameters for Predicting Difficult Laryngoscopy and Intubation in a Tertiary Center in Western Nepal

Journal of Nepal Health Research Council, 2020
Background: The screening tests used for pre-operative evaluation of airway to predict difficult laryngoscopy and intubation have variable diagnostic accuracy. The unanticipated poor laryngeal view is gold standard for defining difficult intubation.

Complications after medullary thyroid carcinoma surgery: multicentre study of the SQRTPA and EUROCRINE® databases

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
This study investigated postoperative complications after surgery for medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in Europe. Hypoparathyroidism, recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy and bleeding requiring reoperation occurred in 170 (26·2 per cent), 62 (13·7 per cent) and 17 (2·6 per cent) patients respectively.

Predicting Difficult Laryngoscopy by Ultrasound Quantification of Anterior Neck Soft Tissue Thickness-A Prospective Observational Study [PDF]

, 2023
Introduction: Difficult airway can possess a challenge to intubation and deciding role in morbidity and mortality. Hence, at these times Ultrasonography (USG) can play a vital role in the prediction of a difficult airway.

An observational study to evaluate the role of ultrasound in the prediction of difficult laryngoscopy

Bali Journal of Anesthesiology, 2020
Background: Difficult laryngoscopy (DL) is challenging when difficult ventilation occurs during standard laryngoscopy. For airway assessment, the common clinical airway predictors have low sensitivity (Sn) and specificity (Sp) with a limited predictive ...
