Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To predict the sensitivity and specificity of all four parameters in predicting difficult laryngoscopy i.e sonographic measurements from Anteriorneck softtissue 1) At level of hyoid bone 2) At the level of thyrohyoid membrane and difficult airway clinical screening tests 1) Mallampati score 2) Thyromental distance Timepoint: The preoperative assessment data of above parameters along with the Intubation difficulty scale as gold standard will be used to determine the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive values and they will be analyzed in combination and for individual test at the end of study i.e within 6 months | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To measure the distances in predicting difficult laryngoscopy i.e sonographic measurements from Anterior neck soft tissue 1) At level of hyoid bone 2) At the level of thyrohyoid membrane and difficult airway clinical screening tests 1) Mallampati score 2) Thyromental distance Timepoint: Within 6 months once study Is over so as to calculate sensitivity and specificity individually and in total | — |
