Sternomental distance and sternomental displacement as predictors of difficult laryngoscopy and intubation in adult patients
BACKGROUND: Several morphometric airway measurements have been used to predict difficult laryngoscopy (DL). This study evaluated sternomental distance (SMD) and sternomental displacement (SMDD, difference between SMD measured in neutral and extended head position), as predictors of DL and difficult...
