Summary

This study will observe 40,000 adults undergoing anesthesia across Europe to track any problems that occur with airway management, such as difficulties with breathing tubes or masks. Researchers will record patient details and how anesthesia is given, then analyze any incidents to find ways to improve safety. The goal is to learn from real-world events to reduce risks in future surgeries.
