Study tests if Pre-Surgery exams can prevent airway emergencies in C-Sections
NCT ID NCT07340346
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether common bedside tests (like mouth opening and neck size) can predict difficulty placing a breathing tube in pregnant women having C-sections. Over 500 patients were observed during routine care. The goal is to improve safety by identifying high-risk patients before anesthesia.
