The predictive value of the ratio of neck circumference to thyromental distance in comparison with four predictive tests for difficult laryngoscopy in obstetric patients scheduled for caesarean delivery

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2014
Background: Preoperative assessment of anatomical landmarks andclinical factors help detect potentially difficult laryngoscopies. The aim of the present study was to compare the ability to predict difficult visualization of the larynx from thefollowing ...

Does neck circumference help to predict difficult intubation in obstetric patients? A prospective observational study

Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2018
Background: Failed intubation in obstetrics remains the most common cause of death directly related to anesthesia. Neck circumference has been shown to be a predictor for difficult intubation in morbidly obese patients.

Use of ultrasound to predict difficult intubation in Chinese population by assessing the ratio of the pre‐epiglottis space distance and the distance between epiglottis and vocal folds

Hong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 25, Issue 3, Page 152-159, May 2018., 2018
Objective: To investigate the accuracy of using the ratio of pre‐epiglottis space distance (Pre‐E) and the distance between the epiglottis and the vocal folds (Pre‐E/E‐VF) measured by the ultrasound to predict potential difficult airway in the Chinese population. Design: A prospective clinical study. Setting: The pre‐operative assessment service clinic

Can chin-nape circumference and the ratio of neck circumference to chin-nape circumference predict difficult mask ventilation or difficult intubation in obese patients? [PDF]

Medicine (Baltimore), 2023
We aimed to evaluate the success of the ratio of chin–nape circumference (CNC) and neck circumference (NC) to CNC in predicting difficult mask ventilation (DMV) or difficult intubation (DI).
