Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Modified Mallampati test significantly worsens in supine position compared to upright position however airway assessment in both position without phonation equally predict difficult laryngoscopy and intubation in paediatric patients. Timepoint: One year—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Airway evaluation using Modified Mallampati test in supine position can be routinely applied in bedridden patient and in patient requiring emergency intubation.Timepoint: One year—
