Clinical Trial: Prospective Development and Validation of an Objective Classification for Difficult Facemask Ventilation: the MASCAN Score

U.S., Dec. 11 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07275502) titled 'Prospective Development and Validation of an Objective Classification for Difficult Facemask Ventilation: the MASCAN Score' on Nov. 27.

Brief Summary: Difficult facemask ventilation remains poorly classified. Existing definitions rely on expert opinion and subjective rating of surrogates. This lack of standardization has led to highly variable reported incidences and inconsistencies in clinical practice and research.

This secondary analysis of the prospective observational MASCAN study aims to develop and validate a data-driven objective classification system for difficult facemask ventilation and to determine its diagnostic perfor...
