Effectiveness of four ultrasonographic parameters as predictors of difficult intubation in patients without anticipated difficult airway

Background Predicting difficult intubation (DI) is a key challenge, as no single clinical predictor is sufficiently valid to predict the outcome. We evaluated the effectiveness of four upper airway ultrasonographic parameters in predicting DI. The validity of the models using combinations of ultraso...
