What this Trial Is About

In the "PrediSuisse" research project, the investigators aim to create a reliable, reproducible, ultra-portable and radiation-free automatized software, able to identify automatically collected features, facial characteristics, and range of movements, to predict intubation difficulty. The software will generate a difficulty intubation score tailored to three commercially available videolaryngoscopes with different type of blades, corresponding to the predicted endotracheal intubation difficulty while providing the anaesthesiologist a reliable and non-subjective tool to assess individual patient's risks with regards to airway management.
