Mallampati Score for Prediction and Prognosis of Postoperative Mortality and Morbidity and Safety Profiles of Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy in Qassim Region

A preoperative assessment by anaesthetic staff should include the Mallampati Score, as there is a direct correlation between the amount of space in the pharynx and the laryngoscopic view during intubation which has been refined by Cormack and Lehane (1984) Clinical diagnosis one of most important factor indicating the postoperative complications like Mallampati score. As the Mallampati class zero per se is not indicating with any difficulty of airway management unless other airway characteristics indicating to the difficulty. As well as if the epiglottis may be large and overhanging, it's not common with airway difficulty in Mallampati class zero airway.

The Mallampati score idea is to estimate the size of the tongue related to the oral cavity and the displacement of the tongue by the laryngoscope blade was likely to be easy or difficult. It also assessed whether the mouth could be opened adequately to permit intubation

Research objectives To predict the majority of Mallampati score for the patients in Qassim region who undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Surgery.

Method:

Observational, Multi hospital, Regional Study
