Conditions

Health Condition 1: null- Patients with complaint of snoring, aged 15-60 years, with American society of anaesthesiologists physical classification status grades 1 and 2.

Interventions

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Correlation between clinical airway assessment tests, cephalometry, polysomnography and Drug induced sleep endoscopy findings.Timepoint: At the end of the study after data analysis in September 2015.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Prediction of difficult bag mask ventilation and endotracheal intubation based on the outcome of correlation between clinical airway assessment tests, cephalometry, polysomnography and Drug induced sleep endoscopy findings, and to plan future anaesthetic management if these patients come for any surgery.Timepoint: At the end of the study after data analysis in September 2015.
