What is Riad 2016 about?
This study investigates the relationship between neck circumference and obesity as predictors of difficult intubation and mask ventilation in morbidly obese patients. The findings indicate that a neck circumference greater than 42 cm and a BMI over 50 kg/m² are independent predictors of difficult intubation, while male sex and high BMI are linked to difficult mask ventilation. The study highlights the importance of these factors in preoperative assessments for morbidly obese surgical patients.
