Brief Summary
|
This is
observational analytical study to determine the utility
of ultrasound measurement of the anterior neck soft tissue thickness at hyoid
and thyrohyoid level and Tongue thickness in predicting difficult and easy
laryngoscopy.
Conventional
clinical screening tests like MMP, inter incisor gap, thyromental distance, sternomental
distance will measured during preoperative assessment. Ultrasound
measurement of the anterior neck soft tissue thickness at hyoid and thyrohyoid
level and Tongue thickness will be measured on the day of surgery before
induction of anesthesia in supine and sniffing position in operation theatre. Direct
laryngoscopy will be performed. Ultrasound guided measurements will be compared
with conventional clinical screening tests to predict difficult laryngoscopy. |
