Evaluation of ultrasound guided measurement of tongue thickness in predicting difficult intubation in obese patients.
INTRODUCTION: Managing the airway presents a significant challenge in anesthesia, particularly in obese patients, and is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality associated with anesthesia. Although increased tongue thickness in the obese is generally assumed to be associated with a difficult intu...
