Pre-anesthesia imaging to assess your breathing passages
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 checks the position of a breathing tube (laryngeal mask airway) using a tiny camera (bronchoscope) during general anesthesia. The goal is to see if the camera helps confirm that the tube is placed correctly, which may improve safety and comfort.
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 an AI tool that uses your head and neck CT scan images to help doctors predict whether placing a breathing tube during surgery might be difficult. This could help them plan safer anesthesia for you.
This study uses ultrasound to look at children's airways before planned surgery under general anesthesia. It aims to help doctors better predict the right size of breathing tube, which could reduce complications.
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.
This study tests a new scoring method using ultrasound to help doctors place a breathing tube during general anesthesia. It aims to reduce complications and make the process safer for patients.
