Predictive Parameters for Difficult Tracheal Intubation Identification in Thyroid Surgery

NCT03578601 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 500

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Intubation manoeuvres in patients undergoing thyroid surgery might be challenging for anesthesiologist. Thyroid gland enlargement (goiter) or tissue fibrosis (neoplasms) could alter the physiologic anatomy of upper airways and trachea, resulting in compression or dislocation. We want to evaluate the incidence and identify predictive parameters of difficult intubation in patients undergoing thyroid surgery.
