U.S., July 23 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07077317) titled 'Examining the Effects of Anthropometric Measurements on Difficult Airway Prediction' on July 11.
Brief Summary: Airway-related complications are among the leading causes of anesthesia-associated morbidity and mortality. Therefore, the ability to predict difficult mask ventilation, laryngoscopy, and intubation before induction is essential to ensure proper preparation in patients at risk and avoid unnecessary airway manipulations in low-risk individuals. While numerous studies have focused on predicting difficult intubation, most have limited sample sizes and do not consider postoperative critical respiratory events.
In this prospec...
