Primary outcomes

  1. airway evaluation for menagement in obese patient

    Time frame: 3 year

    preoperative airway measurements routinely performed (mallampati score, thyromental distance, neck circumference ..)for each patient will be evaluated

  2. mallampati score

    Time frame: 3 year

    Class I : Visualization of the soft palate, fauces; uvula, anterior and the posterior pillars. Class II : Visualization of the soft palate, fauces and uvula. Class III : Visualization of soft palate and base of uvula. Class IV: Only hard palate is visible. Soft palate is not visible at all.

  3. thyromental distance

    Time frame: 3 year

    TMD was measured as straight distance between thyroid notch and lower border of mental prominence.(cm)

  4. neck circumference

    Time frame: 3 year

    Neck Circumference was measured in the midway of the neck, between mid-cervical spine and mid anterior neck, to within 1 mm, using non-stretchable plastic tape with the subjects standing upright.
