Thyroid thickness may predict breathing tube challenges in hypothyroidism patients
NCT ID NCT06896513
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 220 adults with treated hypothyroidism to see if a thinner thyroid gland makes it harder to place a breathing tube during general anesthesia. Researchers measured thyroid thickness with ultrasound before surgery and recorded intubation difficulty. The goal is to help anesthesiologists better predict and prepare for difficult airways in this patient group.
