Summary

This completed study looked at 430 children aged 0 to 5 years who needed a breathing tube during surgery. Researchers compared two scoring systems—PeDiAC and IDS—to see which one better measures how difficult it is to place the tube using a special video camera. The goal is to help doctors predict and manage difficult airways, improving safety for young patients.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

This study will enroll pediatric patients aged 0 to 5 years who are undergoing general anesthesia for elective and emergent surgical procedures requiring tracheal intubation. Patients will be intubated using a videolaryngoscope. Subjects with difficult airway history, emergency surgery, or airway pathology will be excluded. The study aims to compare two scoring systems evaluating intubation difficulty in this age group.
