Mallampati Score Before and After Cesarean Delivery (MSBAC)

May 15, 2017 updated by: Lisa Sangkum, Ramathibodi Hospital

Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University

Mallampati class change has not been well evaluated during the cesarean delivery. Various factors regarding to cesarean delivery might influence this changes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the Mallampati class before and after cesarean delivery and to identify predictive factors of the changes..

Study Type: Observational Cross-sectional study

Study Overview

Status

Detailed Description

Mallampati class, thyromental distance, neck circumference, and upper lip bite test were evaluated at four time intervals : during pre-anesthetic visit (T0), 1-hour (T1), 6-hour (T2), and 24-hour after delivery (T3).

up tp 2 days
Evaluate thyromental distance changes before and after cesarean delivery
Time Frame: up tp 2 days
thyromental distance (centimeter) before delivery, 2 and 6 hours after delivery, and post-operative day1 (the day of surgery and post-operative day 1)
up tp 2 days
Evaluate upper lip bite score changes before and after cesarean delivery
Time Frame: up to 2 days

up to 2 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
