Usefulness of Ultrasound View of Larynx in Pre-Anesthetic Airway Assessment: A Comparison With Cormack-Lehane Classification During Direct Laryngoscopy
BACKGROUND One of the main challenges in anesthesiology is difficult intubation. There are many anatomical parameters for evaluating the feasibility of tracheal intubation; one that can reliably predict a difficult intubation is the Cormack-Lehane classification obtained during direct laryngoscopy. This is an invasive procedure that cannot be performed in an awake patient or for pre-anesthetic ...
متن کاملUltrasonographic modification of Cormack Lehane classification for pre-anesthetic airway assessment.
BACKGROUND The major drawback of Cormack Lehane classification for airway assessment is its dependence on invasive direct laryngoscopy and hence it is inapplicable for pre-anesthetic assessment of airway in patients with no prior history of tracheal intubation. STUDY OBJECTIVES The purpose of the study was to compare and correlate the ultrasound view of the airway and the Cormack Lehane class...
متن کاملA comparison of the Airtraq®, McGrath®, and Macintosh laryngoscopes for difficult paediatric intubation: A manikin study
BACKGROUND The efficacy of devices for difficult intubation in paediatric patients, especially with a Cormack-Lehane grade 4 view, has yet to be established. We compared intubating parameters among three devices (the Airtraq®, McGrath®, and Macintosh laryngoscopes). METHODS This study is a randomised cross-over trial. Participants were 20 anaesthetists. Each device was tested three times usin...
متن کاملA comparison of McCoy, TruView, and Macintosh laryngoscopes for tracheal intubation in patients with immobilized cervical spine
BACKGROUND Cervical spine immobilization results in a poor laryngeal view on direct laryngoscopy leading to difficulty in intubation. This randomized prospective study was designed to compare the laryngeal view and ease of intubation with the Macintosh, McCoy, and TruView laryngoscopes in patients with immobilized cervical spine. MATERIALS AND METHODS 60 adult patients of ASA grade I-II with ...
متن کاملusefulness of ultrasound view of larynx in pre-anesthetic airway assessment: a comparison with cormack-lehane classification during direct laryngoscopy
conclusions our study revealed weak correlation between pe/e-vc and cormack-lehane grade, with 87% sensitivity and 30% specificity. therefore, we concluded that sonographic measurement criteria are not accurate in airway evaluations before anesthesia. results it was observed that correlations between the pre-epiglottic space (pe) and cormack-lehane grades i, ii, and iii were weak. correlations ...
