Neck circumference to inter-incisor gap ratio: a new predictor of difficult laryngoscopy in cervical spondylosis patients

BMC Anesthesiology, 2017
Background Preoperative airway assessment help anticipate a difficult airway. We hypothesized that a close association existed between difficult laryngoscopy and the neck circumference/inter-incisor gap ratio (RNIIG). Our aim was to determine its utility

Deep learning‐based facial analysis for predicting difficult videolaryngoscopy: a feasibility study

Anaesthesia, Volume 79, Issue 4, Page 399-409, April 2024.
Summary While videolaryngoscopy has resulted in better overall success rates of tracheal intubation, airway assessment is still an important prerequisite for safe airway management. This study aimed to create an artificial intelligence model to identify difficult videolaryngoscopy using a neural network.
