Prediction of the Difficult Laryngoscopy with Ultrasound Measurements of Hyomental Distance

Abstract: Ultrasound measurement of hyomental distance is promising as a predictor for difficult laryngoscopy in cases of difficult airway management. The aim of the study was to evaluate the prognostic value of ultrasound measurement of hyomental distance (HMD) for prediction of difficult laryngoscopy. Hyomental distance was sonographically measured in neutral (HMDn) and extreme head extension (HMDe) positions for fifty-six patients scheduled for elective surgery requiring tracheal intubation. Then the hyomental distan… Show more
