Determination of the Accuracy of Thyromental Height Test for Predicting Difficult Laryngoscopy in Obstetric Patients Who Are Candidates for Cesarean Section: An Observational Study
The use of TMHT can improve patient outcomes and the preoperative evaluation process, making it a valuable tool for anesthesiologists managing obstetric patients. The TMHT could be considered a complementary tool to existing airway assessment methods, particularly in obstetric patients, due to its high predictive accuracy and ease of use.This study is registered at Iranian Registry of Clinical Trial (IRCT) under identifier code of IR.TUMS.SINAHOSPITAL.REC.1399.061.
