“…Four additional and independent risk factors for difficult mask ventilation were assessed in intervention departments (see below). We have addressed the impact of implementing a screening tool for difficult intubation in a separate publication , this current paper exclusively addresses the issues of predicting difficult mask ventilation and combined difficulties with mask ventilation and intubation. The two publications include overlapping patients in regard to those being both mask ventilated and tracheally intubated.…”

“…We assessed all patients using 13 predictors for difficult airway management (Table 1) [7,8,[14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. In addition to the predefined risk factors for difficult facemask ventilation, all anaesthetists had to tick a box stating whether facemask ventilation was anticipated to be difficult or not.…”
