Post analysis simulated correlation of the El-Ganzouri airway difficulty score with difficult airway
Background: Difficult airway (DA) occurs frequently (5–15%) in clinical practice. The El-Ganzouri Risk Index (EGRI) has a high sensitivity for predicting a difficult intubation (DI). However difficult mask ventilation (DMV) was never included in the EGRI. Since DMV was not included in the EGRI asses...
