Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The participants will have immediate benefit from participation. However, their participation will help in contributing to knowledge that can eventually benefit obstetric patients with a difficult airwayTimepoint: The participants will have immediate benefit from participation. However, their participation will help in contributing to knowledge that can eventually benefit obstetric patients with a difficult airway from next day
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
ltrasound has shown to be very useful in airway assessment. In the non obstetric population, it has shown that depth of airway, particularly the depth of cricothyroid membrane can be predicted with formula using patient weight. This study will check if this applies in the obstetric population. This knowledge will help us in difficult airway management in obstetric patients in the future may be from next dayTimepoint: Ultrasound has shown to be very useful in airway assessment. In the non obstetric population,This knowledge will help us in difficult airway management in obstetric patients in the future may be from next day
