Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate effectiveness of sonographic airway assessment parameters as predictors of difficulty airway (difficult mask and ventilation and laryngoscopy)in paediatric patients of 1 to 10 years receiving general anaesthesiaTimepoint: Ultrasound will be done in preoperative period and primary outcome will be assessed during mask ventilation and induction

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Evaluation of predictive ability of available clinical airway predictors Possible development of model for prediction of difficulty airwayTimepoint: Clinical airway predictors will be assessed in preoperative period Predictive ability will be assessed during mask ventilation and laryngoscopy and possible model of development will be done during statistical analysis of the data
