Summary

This study looks at whether using ultrasound before and after surgery can help predict difficult breathing tube placement in obese patients. It also compares three different types of laryngoscopes (tools used to see the airway) to see which works best. About 180 obese adults having elective surgery will take part. The goal is to improve safety and reduce complications during intubation.
