Airway Ultrasound and PeDiAC Score in Pediatric Patients

Starting soon

Conditions studied: Difficult Airway, Difficult Intubation, Airway Assessment

In brief

This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the relationship between preoperative ultrasonographic airway measurements and the Pediatric Difficult Airway Classification (PeDiAC) score in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia. The study will assess whether ultrasound-derived airway parameters are associated with difficult airway characteristics and PeDiAC scores.
