Pre-anesthesia imaging to assess your breathing passages
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to check your breathing passages using images taken before anesthesia. It aims to help doctors plan safer airways for surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having surgery where you will be completely asleep (general anesthesia).
- You are able to have a consultation and airway check before surgery.

This study tests an automated tool to help doctors assess your airway before surgery, aiming to make breathing tube placement safer. It is for adults who are already scheduled for general anesthesia with a breathing tube.
This study tests whether ultrasound and a special imaging method (called TMH) can help doctors predict which patients might have difficulty with the breathing tube placed during surgery. Better prediction could make anesthesia safer.
This study is testing a new scoring system to help doctors predict if placing a breathing tube or giving oxygen through a mask will be difficult. It includes adults having general anesthesia for stomach or bone surgery.
This study uses ultrasound to look at the airway and a special score (PeDiAC) in children getting breathing tubes for planned surgeries. The goal is to see if ultrasound can help doctors predict or manage the airway better.
This trial uses an artificial intelligence (AI) program to look at CT scan images of your head and neck to predict if putting a breathing tube in will be difficult. The goal is to help doctors plan safer care.
This trial uses ultrasound to measure children's airways before surgery, aiming to predict if placing a breathing tube will be difficult. It could help doctors prepare better and keep kids safer during anesthesia.
