研究概览
简要总结
This is a prospective cross-sectional observation study to evaluate the success rate of digital palpation method for identification of cricothyroid membrane in patients with normal and anticipated difficult airway patients.
The success of digital palpation is defined when the point marked by digital palpation is within 5mm of point marked by ultrasound. Also the distance between these two points will be measured. This success rate and distance will be correlated with various airway factors (Modified Mallampati grade, neck circumference , thyromental distance ) and demographic factors ( age , gender, BMI ).
