Ultrasound-Based Airway Assessment for Predicting Difficult Intubation in Adult Female Patients

NCT07343557 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 400

Last updated 2026-01-15

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the ability of selected ultrasonographic airway measurements to predict difficult intubation in adult female patients undergoing elective surgery. Pre-induction airway ultrasonography will be performed to measure tongue thickness and anterior neck soft tissue-related parameters. These measurements will be compared with laryngoscopic findings during direct laryngoscopy. The results of this study may help identify practical and reliable ultrasound-based markers for preoperative airway assessment and improve patient safety.
