First seen Apr 11, 2026 · Last updated May 21, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study aims to develop a portable, radiation-free software that uses facial recognition and AI to predict how difficult it will be to place a breathing tube during anesthesia. Researchers will collect facial features and neck movement data from 1,800 adults before surgery to train the software. The goal is to give anesthesiologists a reliable, objective tool to assess airway risks, potentially improving patient safety.
