Prediction of Ease of Laryngoscopy and Intubation-Role of Upper Lip Bite Test, Modified Mallampati Classification, and Thyromental Distance in Various Combination
BACKGROUND: The incidence of difficult intubation in patients undergoing general anaesthesia is estimated to be approximately 1-18% whereas that of failure to intubate is 0.05-0.35%.1,2,3 Various methods have been used for prediction of difficult laryngoscopy. Although, upper lip bite has been shown...
