Evaluation of Difficult Airway in Obese Patients With Ultrasonography

Eskisehir Osmangazi University·observational·Posted Feb 28, 2020·Updated Mar 14, 2022

In Brief

An observational study evaluating Distance between hyoid bone-skin (DSHB), Vocal cord anterior commissura-skin distance (DSAC), and 3 other interventions for Difficult Intubation and Obesity. Completed, enrolled 128 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

As a result of anatomical and physiological changes in obese patients, airway management can be challenging. Ultrasound measurement of neck anterior soft tissues combined with recommended predictive tests may increase the ability to predict the difficult airway. In this study we planned to evaluate the measurement of neck anterior soft tissues by ultrasound in obese patients before anesthesia induction to anticipate difficult mask ventilation, difficult laryngoscopy, and intubation.
