This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the relationship between preoperative ultrasonographic airway measurements and the Pediatric Difficult Airway Classification (PeDiAC) score in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia. The study will assess whether ultrasound-derived airway parameters are associated with difficult airway characteristics and PeDiAC scores.

Patients scheduled for elective surgery.
Patients undergoing endotracheal intubation under general anesthesia.
