Clinical Trial: Awake Bedside Assessment of The Airway and Evaluation of Tracheal Intubation With CMAC D-Blade or Video Stylet in Bariatric Surgery

U.S., May 22 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06981923) titled 'Awake Bedside Assessment of The Airway and Evaluation of Tracheal Intubation With CMAC D-Blade or Video Stylet in Bariatric Surgery' on May 11.

Brief Summary: Patients undergoing bariatric surgery often present challenges during intubation due to limited neck mobility, increased soft tissue in the airway, and elevated body mass index (BMI). Predicting difficult intubation in these patients is critical to ensuring safety. The Simplified Airway Risk Index (SARI) by Ganzouri is a validated tool for predicting difficult intubation. It considers factors like neck mobility, Mallampati score, and body weight, which are highly relevant in di...
