The Effect of Preoperative and Postoperative Airway Ultrasonography and Different Laryngoscope Uses on Intubation Success and Postoperative Complications in Obese Patients

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Device, Procedure
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

The main objective of this study was to examine the relationship between classical markers used in assessing difficult airway management in obese patients (Mallampati score, thyromental distance, sternomental distance, neck circumference measurement) and ultrasonographic parameters (vocal cord mobility, glottic opening, hyomental distance, skin-epiglottic distance, and peri-epiglottic space-epiglottic-vocal cord ratio), to compare the effects of these parameters on predicting difficult intubation, and to investigate the effects of different laryngoscopy methods on intubation success and peroperative respiratory complications. The secondary objective of the study is to investigate the effects of different laryngoscopy methods on hemodynamic responses to intubation. Participants' gender, age, height, weight, BMI, ASA physical status classification, smoking status, comorbidities, STOP-BANG and LEMON scores will be recorded. The glottic score percentage (POGO score), glottic visualization time, endotracheal intubation time, use of assistive maneuvers, and Intubation Difficulty Scale (IDS) parameters will be compared according to the laryngoscopy methods used. Participants must meet the following criteria: * Consent given by the patient * Operated under general anesthesia * Over 18 years of age * American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status classification I-II-III * Body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m2 or higher * Operation duration between 60-150 minutes * Patients undergoing elective surgery.
