Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | sensitivity, specificity of the sternomental displacement as a predictor of difficult laryngoscopy in elderly surgical patients. | 10 minutes | ||
Secondary | Thyromental Height Test (TMHT) | Thyromental Height Test (TMHT): will be measured while a patient is lying supine with the head and neck are maintained in a neutral position using a pillow under the head. By using a digital depth gauge, the TMH is the vertical distance measured between the anterior border of the thyroid cartilage directly on the thyroid notch and the anterior border of the mentum. | 10 minutes | |
Secondary | Sternomental displacement (SMDD) | Sternomental displacement (SMDD): While the patient is sitting with the head in a neutral position, SMD-neutral will be measured using a tape as the distance between upper borders of the manubrium sterni and the mentum. The SMD-extension will then be measured in the same way with the head extended on the neck. The difference between SMD-extension and SMD- | 10 minutes | |
Secondary | Modified Mallampati test (MMT) | Modified Mallampati test (MMT): the patient will be seated in a neutral position, the mouth is maximally opened, tongue protruded, and no phonation. According to the apparent oropharyngeal structures, the proper classification will be recorded. | 10 minutes | |
Secondary | Cormack-Lehane (CL) grading system | Cormack-Lehane (CL) grading system from I-IV. (Grade I: full view of the glottis; grade II: glottis partly exposed, anterior commissure not seen; grade III: only epiglottis seen; grade IV: epiglottis not seen). Grade I &II will be categorized as easy laryngoscopy and grade III and IV as difficult laryngoscopy. | 10 minutes | |
Secondary | The number and duration of intubation attempts | 10 minutes |
