A study of prediction of difficult visualization of larynx by comparing airway assessement tests.

Comparison of newer airway assessement tests- upper lip bite test (ULBT), ratio of height to thyromental distance (RHTMD), thyromental height test (TMHT), and acromio-axillo suprasternal notch index(AASI) for visualization of larynx in geriatric population: A prospective, observational study - nil
