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 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 ...
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 کاملEstimation of the nares-to-epiglottis distance and the nares-to-vocal cords distance in young children.
BACKGROUND Estimation of the nares-to-epiglottis and nares-to-vocal cords distances would facilitate the selection of properly sized nasopharyngeal airways and appropriate positioning of a fibreoptic bronchoscope in young children. The purposes of this study were to measure the nares-to-epiglottis and nares-to-vocal cords distances and to create an algorithm to predict these distances based on ...
