Vidiac Score

This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the relationship between preoperative ultrasonographic airway measurements and the Video-Intubation Difficulty Assessment Classification (VIDIAC) score in adult patients undergoing endotracheal intubation under general anesthesia. The study will investigate whether airway ultrasound parameters can predict difficult videolaryngoscopic intubation and assess their association with the Cormack-Lehane classification, intubation time, and other airway management outcomes.

The VIDIAC score is a measurement system that objectively defines glottic visibility and anatomical complexity in videolaryngoscopy. The literature has shown a relationship between parameters such as BMI, NC, and TMD and difficult airway management in obese patients, but there is no study examining the BRI-VIDIAC relationship.
